I'm not certain what this movie was ultimately about. For sure it was interesting and well done and introduced unfamiliar spirits and creatures and characters (including naked alien babies), but I don't know the point or what the director was trying to get across to me. Perhaps it lost something in the translation.
The animation and action were good, but I don't get it. I won't be watching it again.
