Sinopsis(1)
Cuando Alita (Rosa Salazar) se despierta sin recordar quién es en un mundo futuro que no reconoce, Ido (Christoph Waltz), un médico compasivo, se da cuenta de que en algún lugar de este caparazón de cyborg abandonado está el corazón y el alma de una mujer joven con un pasado extraordinario. Mientras Alita aprende a llevar su nueva vida y a desenvolverse por las traicioneras calles de Iron City, Ido trata de protegerla de su misteriosa historia a la vez que su nuevo amigo callejero, Hugo (Keean Johnson), le ofrece su ayuda para desencadenar sus recuerdos. Pero sólo cuando las fuerzas mortales y corruptas que manejan la ciudad van detrás de Alita, ella descubre una pista sobre su pasado: posee unas habilidades de combate únicas, que las personas que están en el poder querrán controlar a toda costa. Si consigue mantenerse fuera de su alcance, podría ser la clave para salvar a sus amigos, a su familia y al mundo que ha llegado a amar. (20th Century Fox España)

Una historia de ciencia ficción y acción contada con energía y corazón. Su fuerza motriz es la Alita digital, sorprendentemente el más animado de los personajes. ¡Muy mona! El viejo papá Waltz, también. Habría dado más tiempo a los otros personajes, habría ayudado a la complejidad de la película, que es un poco escasa. Y no me refiero solo a profundizar en el personaje de la supermilf Connelly y otros personajes de importancia similar, sino también a dar cabida a secundarios divertidos como el vaquero Fahey. Definitivamente tenía más espacio en el guión. De todos modos, la película alterna emociones de montaña rusa con una acción espectacular, y las batallas con la transformación de una chica frágil en la luchadora definitiva son impresionantes. Para mí satisfacción y en Atmos o IMAX repetiría sin problemas. Japonci budou nadšení.

A tarted-up lot of nothing that’s nice to look at. The visuals are unsurprisingly superb, Rodríguez’s direction is surprisingly solid and focused, and the robotic/computer generated main character is very likeable. I wouldn’t have a problem with it overall, if, somewhere in the middle, I hadn’t realised that the film not only wasn’t moving towards the central clash, but that it would also elegantly avoid it. To be continued, basically.

I wasn't expecting much, but I was hoping it would turn out to be a fun and nice looking piece of crap. And in the end, it did. Alita probably won't appear on my list of the best films of the year, but the two hours in the cinema went by faster and more pleasantly than I would have guessed a few weeks ago. The visual effects and production design are top-notch and it's a really good watch, but this sci-fi epic gets the most points for its heroine. Rosa Salazar is great as Alita, she's both endearingly freaky and spectacularly deadly at the right moments. Robert Rodriguez keeps a surprisingly low profile and his action scenes are lucid and milk Hollywood's current technological capabilities to the max. The whole thing may be a little cheesy and 90s in both the good and bad sense of the word, but they are clearly aware of that. A lot of the themes aren't fleshed out enough (and shouldn't have been) and at times Alita turns into a sci-fi romance for teenage girls, but it still works. Personally, I had no problem tuning in on the same wavelength as Rodriguez and Cameron and enjoying the fact that it's big, beautiful, action-packed and fun. And basically, that was enough to satisfy me.

Alita pushes computer acting to a new level, aided by a story whose straightforwardness and naivety (most painfully rising to the fore in the development of an extremely hollow romantic subplot) that have their charm, but it’s not enough for a two-hour film. I would rather suppose the basis of the film to be a young adult novel by an American author who loves Japanese culture and James Cameron films (at least the latter bit about James Cameron, who wrote the screenplay, is probably true), rather than a Japanese cyberpunk manga comic book. Christoph Waltz with a rocket-powered pickaxe, describing a martial art called Panzerkunst, philosophising about whether one can love a cyborg, and Mahershala Ali as Blade don't help much. Nevertheless, Rodriguez has not been so focused in his storytelling for a long time. Even more so than in the patient building (or revealing) of the world from the lowest floor, this can be seen in the uncluttered action sequences with very complex choreography (I would not shy away from a comparison with Ready Player One). I wouldn’t be surprised if it is such a failure that we won’t see a follow-up, but I also wouldn’t mind if a sequel was made. 65%
