Brooklyn's smuggling companions are slaughtered, sometimes violently, one by one as they wantonly defy the security systems of the Kyron-5. Babe falls into a vat of green liquid and becomes a cybernetic antagonist. Brooklyn is placed under arrest by Sergeant Nim, who suggests they follow surviving children Seven and Eleven. The Kyron-5 declared war on humanity, and killed most of those living on the island... (imdb)

It's so incoherent, yet so conventional. So confident, yet so detached... I really didn't know what to think of it. Most of the time, I'm not sure what is going on. Everything I guess is based on my knowledge of movie tropes. Truth is, I never experienced anything quite like it. I'm not even sure what was intentional and accidental. One thing I know though: I like it!

Gunhed is a Japanese live-action Mecha-Transformers movie done up in low-budget, gritty cyberpunk style. Unfortunately, it gives us a set of almost irreconcilable issues. On the one hand, the low-budget robots are pretty cool, as are a number of other low-budget FX. Yet, these are packaged in a barrage of incoherent plot points and truly strange sound decisions (the Japanese actors speak Japanese while the American actors speak English).
