'Ghost in the Shell' is one of the best anime films I'd ever seen. The animation is gorgeous, the characters are interesting, and the ideas explored are philosophical. The main topic the film explores is humanity and what makes someone a human, as well as one's sense of identity. In the world of 'Ghost in the Shell', people have combined with machines, sort of like androids. A downside to the mechanization of humans is the risk of someone hacking into others, which is the case for this film. A mysterious person who goes by the name Puppet Master is hacking people in order to do his bidding. He's able to erase people's minds and give them memories they've never had, making these people believe they're living a life they're not actually living.
