I did not know Alita Battle Angle from Atilla the Hun, just happened to be home "sick" and saw a mostly favorable review in the SF Chronicle date book, well.....on that went to see it in IMAX 3D and all I can say is it was just absolutely fantastic. I did not see one of the critics grinds, for me it was a simply top notch from start to finish, a perfect mix of action, good emotion, and really superb effects and visuals, nothing gratuitous, all of it integrated into and perfectly supporting the story. If they had a sequel ready to roll, I would have gladly stayed in my seat for another few hours to watch that. A really great piece of movie making and story telling; as they say "that's entertainment"! Don't miss it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
