Paprika (R) 7.0

Paprika (2006): When a machine that allows therapists to enter their patient's dreams is stolen, all hell breaks loose. Only a young female therapist can stop it: Paprika. (7.7)

Director: Satoshi Kon
Writers: Yasutaka Tsutsui (novel), Seishi Minakami (screenplay)
Stars: Megumi Hayashibara, Toru Emori and Katsunosuke Hori

The story is super cool; sort of like the Inception a bit, but different. The animation uses the fact that dreams have no limits. The objects coming to life is pretty neatly done. However, I think, I'm a bit spoiled by the Miyazaki movies, some of the anime sequences felt a bit lacking. Still, a great movie for those who like Japanese anime. My Rating: 7.0
