Main Description

Memories consists of three dazzling stories, each delivered with its own style. "Magnetic Rose," based on a manga short by Katsuhiro Otomo, concerns two space travelers following a distress signal drawn into a magnificent world created by one woman's memories. In "Stink Bomb," a young chemist accidentally transforms himself into an unstoppable biological weapon set on a direct course for Tokyo. "Cannon Fodder" depicts a day in the life of a city whose entire purpose is the firing of cannons at an unknown enemy.

Personal Opinions

Nine of Eight

Memories is probably one of the most rewarding anthology films you can pick up, aside from some of the more recent Genius Party anthologies. While Stink bug is a little weak, Magnetic Rose and Cannon Fodder are easily worth the effort of locating a copy of this film, and all of the featurettes are solid enough to warrant a solid four stars.
