Galaxy Express 999 (aka: Ginga Tetsudo 999): (Region-3) |
|

The Japanese-made Galaxy Express offers the spectacle of a real locomotive, chugging its way through the solar system. In Willie Wonka fashion, the locomotive guides its passengers into realizing their heart's desires?which of course usually turns out not to be what they've expected. The central character herein is a little boy, who wishes to learn the secret of immortality. He does...and he doesn't like it one bit. Touted as a children's movie, Galaxy Express is grim going at times. Best not to see this film right after the funeral of a loved one.
Tetsuro Hoshino's wish to board the famous galaxy-traveling train is finally granted when he joins Maetel, a mysterious woman who suggests that he can fulfill his dreams of vengeance against Count Mecha for murdering his mother. But life has a way of proving to idealistic young men that the simplest desire may not always be the easiest to satisfy. |
