Yoshikazu Yasuhiko directed this 1989 feature based on his own manga. The new frontier of Venus has degenerated into a dystopia ravaged by the civil war between Ishtar and Aphrodia. Bubbly reporter Susan Sommers arrives in the capitol of Aphrodia just before it's captured by Ishtar. She falls in with a bunch of teen-agers who live for a sort of motorcycle version of Roller Derby. Daredevil rider Hiro and his friends reluctantly join the struggle to free Aphrodia from the invaders. Not surprisingly, Hiro proves an ace at piloting the mono-cyles that are the Aphrodians' secret weapon in the key battle. Venus Wars holds better than many early anime features. The American-influenced designs may annoy purists, but the characters are well developed and the battle scenes well staged, despite the limited technological resources available at the time. (Rated 13 and older: violence, profanity, alcohol use, risqué humor) --Charles Solomon

And to think at one time I enjoyed this movie. It's rare for me to go back and see an anime film I only slightly enjoyed, but I found some time and decided to watch this film again so that I could write a review on it. Unfortunately (or fortunately, however you want to look at it) I guess my standards for anime, and film in general, are higher now then they were when I first watched this film. It was fun back then, now its just wasted potential.
In the year 2079 Venus is an inhabitable ... Read More

This is one of the first anime movies I ever watched remember when the sci-fi channel used to do those anime weeks. My dad used to let me stay up and watch them with him!!!! When I saw it was on here and not way over priced I was like oh this is definately gotta own this one!!! I've watched it I don't even know how many times already!!!!

There are a lot of characters in this cartoon. So, I am expecting some sort of id-ego-superego (or what the other one called?) kinda model used in many American movies. like... One character represents the ego, another represents the id and the other represents the superego. However, this is not the case. Character development is very little. The boy is a kid and then half an hour later, he is a man... with little development at all. It is like they cut away a big piece of the cartoon right in the ... Read More

This is a mixed bag for me. Its not a bad anime but it was nothing breathtaking for me either. What little it had was entertaining. To include the very cheap price I paid for it was worth it.
Venus Wars didn't have a very interesting story to me. The characters weren't very likeable to me either, regardless how developed some of them were. The saving grace was the plot. Venus is inhabited by humans. It was later invaded by humans. The invasion was very quick and decisive. It took no time ... Read More
