If you loved The Sky Crawlers - I cavalieri del cielo, try Patlabor - The Movie
Un ponte tra un film che hai già visto e uno che quasi nessuno ha incrociato. Questo è ciò che condividono, e ciò che il secondo fa che il primo non fa.
Cosa condividono
Both films are directed by Mamoru Oshii, and they both carry the cerebral, slow burn mood tags, and they sit in Action / Animation / Science Fiction territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Sky Crawlers - I cavalieri del cielo, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Patlabor - The Movie is
Tokyo streets at dusk with sirens blaring, a lone robot wanders. Abandoned construction sites and police labs are central to the investigation. Mamoru Oshii directs with a keen eye for detail.
