In Expelled from Paradise, Earth has been left in ruins following the “Nano Hazard”. Most of humanity has abandoned the planet they once called home along with their physical bodies and rebuilt their digitalized minds into a society within the cyber universe of “DEVA”. (Madman Entertainment)
Reviews (1)
There are a few action scenes, a bit of mecha, and some philosophizing... Unfortunately, the animation was all too obviously done on a computer. Fortunately, the characters were likable (Dingo even exceptionally so), and I found all the musings on topics like "what it means to be human" and "what is the essence of human freedom" actually quite entertaining. Of course, the execution and answers are nothing too shocking for someone who has seen The Matrix and perhaps Short Circuit (I was reminded of both those movies), but why not... 5,5/10.
