HQ Bebop

Advantages: Memorable characters, excellent animation
Disadvantages: Music is all Jazz. Bounty hunters again? Man...

...to civilisation a crazy dude with long wavy hair and nasty goaty beard trying to kill everybody all because he doesn't know if he is dreaming or if he is awake. Great huh? So along comes the bounty hunters of the future riding on their junkpile of a spaceship, the Bebop. The crew consists of Spike Spiegel: our leading man with a blue suit, cropped trousers, afro-ish hair, good sharp shooter and martial arts skills to rival Bruce Lee with a stick of butter. Jet Black: the owner of the Bebop who is balding, has a fake arm and was formerly a cop until he discovered corruption within his department.

...Cowboy bebop the movie also known as knockimg on heavens door is about a group bounty hunters, they are Spike Spiegel, Jet Black, Edward, Faye Valentine and Ein the dog. This particular bounty is a high class terrorist whos an ex army man. His bounty is so high because he uses biochemical weapons. But cause the bounty is so high they go for it anyway. Cowboy Bebop the movie is a truly great action film thats fun to watch. Its got humour action including gun battles and fist to fist combat. Its got truly worthy animation and a great range of characters with completely different personallities that show throughout the movie. Overall this movie is for ages 12 and above because of its swearing and violence. This is a fantastic action, scifi, adventure and comedy all mixed together movie. I highly reccomend this great movie to anyone even... Read review
