| better than I expected. I hated how they didnt optimize the audio levels the engrish was a good idea but was poorly executed This series got a bright future on the right hands |

| Errr why don't they just make a spin-off with Ginoza as the main character. I will rate it 10/10 no matter what, I swear. Ginoza shooting Kamiya Hiroshi's character made me lol, I was pretty excited about bishounen rivalry building up. |
| Meh, this didn't push the overall plot in any meaningful direction. Felt like pointless filler. 7/10 This franchise has been at a standstill since season 2. Guess I'll just consider season one a (awesome) stand alone from now on and won't bother with possible future Psycho Pass content. |

I think Psycho-Pass simply really need a new direction if there will be any sequel. A completely new staff might help. |

| The movie was way better than I what I expected 9/10 easily |
| Great movie, exactly what I wanted to see after finishing season 2. Can't really point out something where I thought it shouldn't have been there or it to be better executed, yes the English voice acting was a bit too much but apart from that I don't think I could've asked for more. Now all that's left to do is to wait for a season 3 announcement.. 9/10. |

| Ma boi Babangida repping Naija.......for like 2 seconds. It was pretty much what I expected, although I feared Gino wouldn't get a chance to do anything. Glad to see Shimotsuki is still there to keep things annoying. The end felt like a token to make it look like Akane accomplished something. All in all, pretty good. |

| Not going to bother watching this because of how bad it sounds. Can someone just tell me the summary of the movie in like a couple of sentences? That would be golden. |

| The action was okay but that's where it really ends. They are going to milk Psycho Pass drier than dried mushrooms. In case someone hasn't gotten it yet: Sybil is the baddie. Its basically a dictatorship ruled by the brains of maniacs. Our main character knows this and yeah that's about it. What seriously annoys me is that the entire(!) world is just civil war chaos, except of course Sybil controlled Japan. Well that's just plain stupid. I am foreseeing a Season 4. |

| The Engrish broke the tension every time. |
| Finally had some time to watch this film. Sure it's not the best I had such a great time watching it. I really enjoyed the action scenes the most and seeing Kougami interacting with Akane again was really nice, especially their first reunion/re-encounter. So Sibyl ended up being the main villain after all, which at this point isn't so surprising but still a nice twist. Seeing the colonel getting blown up and seeing his guts on the floor was gruesome though, damn! The mercenaries the colonel hired were pretty badass but all the members just randomly died except for the leader which Ginoza and Kougami took out together; that was an awesome moment. The Engrish in the film was pretty cringeworthy at times but it wasn't that bad. Overall, I loved this film and who knows we might see a some more Psycho-Pass in the future. Akane x Kougami forever~ 9/10 |

SimmianPrime said: Two series and a movie and Akane is still as naive as she was at the start. The Sibyl System has shown her time and time again that a) it's not perfect and infallible as it claims b) it will straight up lie to accomplish it's goals and c) it will break Akane's precious laws whenever it feels like it. Yet after all this SHE STILL DOES ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. It's beyond infuriating. At this point Akane is basically just as guilty as Sibyl, despite the writers trying to paint her as a conflicted hero. She's just a naive, unchanging dumbass living in a dream world. ... I find your view rather strange. Akane has been an accomplice to Sibyl since the end of season 1 since she believes society needs the system, that's a fact... I mean, the entire season 2 establishes how she becomes Sibyl's keeper, forcing it to evolve rather than fighting it. While I imagine that the majority of viewers prefer a rebellion a la Kougami, that's never been Akane's objective. I did find her naivety annoying though. She should be smarter than that. In any case, it's not like she actually does nothing. She convinces Sibyl to hold an election even though it practically has SEAUn in the palm of its hand. This forces the system to take into consideration the will of the people which was seen as unnecessary. By taking on board Akane's suggestion despite having no obligation to do so at all, it is again evolving its own methods of operation. |

| Waaaay better than the shitty 2nd season that shouldn't have existed. It finally shows how the world outside Japan was, and it did a better job at portraying a grayer point of view of the Sybil System than the show could. The script wasn't particularly amazing and the villains were laughable, though. |
 |
| It was more about Kougami and Akane, it was ok...but I was happy to see all the othesr joining in the last minutes since they barely appeared in the whole thing... I don't get this second season hate..., it was not so bad, P-S is not all about Kougami. 8/10 |

bittersweetlove said: Yes, the 1st was better, I believe the 2 could have been better with more development and more episodes... And of course fewer plot holes & illogical character's decisions would have made the 2nd season better. |

| You know what? If they're gonna make a 3rd season, I hope we get a prequel... as in, how did Sibyl start? We saw in this movie how the countries without Sibyl is. So what made Japan special? Why did they alone think up a method that would give them at least some sort of peace? |
 |
| Wow it was an awesome movie, it surprising to see again Kougami, the reunion between Akane and Kougami was nice. The Kougami's point of view was interesting and thanks to him, Akane was able to help the country. The action was well done, the first scene with all the dominators and the fights with Kougami were the best. Once again, Akane saved the situation with her sense of the "justice", the habitants were given the choice and they chose to use Sybil Great movie, I am waiting for a season 3. |
| Kougami was finally back~! And up, the English was bad, but I have heard even worse... I don't really know whether I would like another sequel or not; I don't think it's going to wrap it up ugh. Hyack said: [b]I could even understand a woman talking Vietnamese. |
| The lack of comments about how hot Akane looked in every single frame of this movie is disheartening. It's like we all forgot to focus on the important stuff. |
 |
| I think a lot of posters are completely missing why Akane hasn't tried to dismantle Sibyl or blown the whistle in SAEUn. Akane knows Sibyl operates purely by logic. That makes it both efficient and predictable. She has seen its flaws first hand and has made that clear to the system at every opportunity. She doesn't try to brute force her way into revolution or jeopardise her career and health through open rebellion: she uses logic and reason to draw Sibyl's attention to its contradictions, flawed logic and harmful policies. That's the entire point of her confrontation of the Chairman. There was no need for violence or rebellion. Simply words spun from logic and reason would suffice because that is all Sibyl requires for its process. We, the viewers, are convinced this isn't enough, that the system is evil and needs to be done away with. Fair enough, but that is our perspective as observers. Akane can't know for certain whether the system is a necessary evil or not. After all, Japan is peaceful and prosperous because of it. Because of the system she found a career that truly fulfills her. Notably at the start of the movie, her friend even found the supposed love of her life through the system. And now Akane has seen the world outside of the system with her own eyes, and that experience has simply reinforced what she had been told and read: that the world outside of Sibyl's reach is wartorn, impoverished and chaotic, mirred in violence and desperation. It is easy to judge the system as evil, but that would mean to turn a blind eye to all the good it does and greater evils it circumvents. Akane knows this, but she also knows that for all the logic there may be in the world to support and justify the Sibyl System's existence, humans are different. Humans are driven by more than logic and deductive reasoning. That's why, after the end credits, she says there will come a time when the Sibyl System will be truly tested. Until that time comes, we likely won't know for sure where she stands. One thing is fairly certain though, Akane has understood this since the end of season 1, which is why she remained on board in season 2 and carried on working for the system in this movie and will likely continue to do so for the foreseeable future. |

Akane and hot should not be used in the same sentence. She has to be the most plainest main character I ever seen. She doesn't exude sexiness at all and in fact just comes off as completely average. |
| I looove the change of setting in this movie!! I also love that there is more hand to hand combat and not the constant use of dominators. Akane is kicking some ass too! I would love if she was this badass in the series :p |
| Engrish: The Movie. Overall it wasn't too bad, art was good and some nice action scenes, but the story wasn't well done, it didn't really move anything forward. It's better than season 2, which was complete garbage in my opinion, at least. Shimotsuki is still a bitch though |

It's better than season 2, which was complete garbage in my opinion, at least. Pretty much how I felt about it. It was good to see Kougami and even if he was only a brief hallucination, Makishima. At least overall the plot and character behavior seemed to be more rational than S2 . But good god, the Engrish was out of control. Not only was it terrible for the most part, but it was all too frequent. While I got used to it after awhile, It was still quite distracting. 7/10 |
| Bizarre Engrish Between Asians [x] Low-average TV budget, complete with gaudy CG [x] No plot progression [x] Character stagnation [x] Filler[x] Considering S2 has killed the series dead and this was the last hurrah, with Urobuchi back onboard, it was a total waste of time. It was ALL totally inconsequential 1D dictatorship vs. nice guy rebels bullshit. Nothing was resolved or taken forward. NOTHING. There was a chance to present Kougami as a 'villain' set on bringing down Sybil. Y'know, carrying on from Makishima in a twisted way. His ideals vs. Akane's. Instead, Akane quickly determined he was still TOTALLY NOT A CRIMINAL after murdering Makishima due to him helping out those poor oppressed rebels, and he apparently has no intention of stopping the system. And Akane? Still stuck in place from S1: 'You're wrong, but I dun wan responsibility, so I'll keep supporting system.' Bitch, please... I LOVED how there was random exposition about how THE ENTIRE WORLD outside of Japan is a warzone without Sybil. Ok, then. One way to justify it. The whole film had a Naruto movie feel. The fights seemed ham-strung by the cheapness of the visuals and the whole 'KouxGin' tag-team fight was pure fanwank. Also: military trained goons sent to Japan were slaughtered by local Japanese police, whose job is to police a controlled society. And Kougami is the only one with sniper hax. Power-levels all over the place. Akane even kung-fu'd Kougami, FFS. Series should've ended with S1's powerful ending. That had meaning. The writing was on the wall when Urobuchi didn't write S2 and it just copied S1 badly. No ideas. PS: Why was the random anime black guy assassin the final boss? |
| How long until season 3? |
 |
| Mhmmm not really live up to my expectation but still a good watch, as long as Kougami is still kick ass ///run |

The Engrish. >.< Wish they could re-dub it or something. The plot's awesome though. I love how they illustrated the world outside, emphasized Sybil System's influence (+ weakness) and Akane's strengths. A lot of throwback scenes to Season 1, and a (love?) triangle forming between Ginoza, Kougami and Akane. Surprised Kougami came out alive, and most of the Sybil conflict occurring outside Japan. Shimosaki Mika is basically a Sybil drone with a name. 0 development for her, as well as for most the enforcers. Also that ending, did that kid mistakenly killed Kougami? Or it's a metaphoric scene showing how Kougami won't return in the future (unlikely if he's alive)? Judging from the last line, there will be a season 3/second movie to wrap up the show. Looking forward to it. |

| Aahh, here comes handfull of delicious engrish! :D But wow, their portrayal of dystopic and totalitarian society in SEAUn's Shamballa Float was pretty good. One certainly gets shivers when seeing that. Parallels to current oppressive regimes in the world can be clearly seen and so is the warning what our society could become and how much of our own freedom are we willing to sacrifice in exchange for our personal safety. One can only think about value of human life and morals of everything they were doing. With decent music and animation they made sure that the war they were showing was far from pretty. If they wanted to evoke such feeling of uneasiness while watching this they made a good job. I also like the conversation Akane had with Sybil in the end. I guess she will never cease to attempt to guide the system into correct way of thinking. Ultimately, nothing has changed but they managed to set a mirror to some of the most controversial things out there. And from aftercredits scene it seems they are not done with Psycho-Pass just yet. All-in-all it was very good conspiracy thriller that raised some burdensome ethical and philosophical questions. A lot better than whole mess of the second series but that's not to be surprised about when Urobuchi was doing the script here. 8/10 |

MadRoosterr said: Mika had such a small part and was still such a cunt What's sad is her Cuntness was what stood out the most in this whole movie lol. As a side note I find it pretty funny that people living in a war zone actually have clear crime coefficients at all. After watching Season 1 and 2 it's pretty clear that the smallest little thing can tip a watcher over the edge. I was king of disappointing that Sibyl didn't just kill everyone when the robots were fixed lol. I can only imagine that the reason why the army could so easily tamper with the scanner robots was because Sibyl allowed it in order to prevent exactly this from happening. After the wars end and the crimes slow down Sibyl probably would have fixed the scanners and did a clean sweep of the city to eliminate the remaining bad guys. Still disappointed though. |

| Kougami, Kougami, Kougami! Loved it. So great to see Kougami again. Can't wait for more. I hope his shows up a little during the next season and not just as a figment of someone's imagination. Hey if you don't like it anymore, you can always stop watching it... The Engrish was pretty bad |

Looking forward to it. Don't think Kougami was killed at all. The bullet would have had to curve. I think his reaction is either because the boy's actions show him that the fight is long from over or that it is ending soon. Ending because the boy can not shoot the gun correctly and has obviously had no need too. Or long from over because yet another child is going to have to learn how to fight. |

| Why my ship still isn't canon?! xD But... anyway... I love it! Animation was perfect as always, sasuga IG :D Story was interesting and Kougami *.* PP is really the best when he shows up! *.* Makishima Shougo = Sakurai Takahiro get small screentime in movie, but I really liked this part :D HiroC and his english xD I can't >.< I wish there was more KougamixAkane moments! Damn it, I ship them so hard, but they are so eh... -.- This ship is so painful, like... I can't even... ;( I wonder if this was tv series this would be as good as movie... Maybe anime quality was little weaker... but... I want more! >.< Give me more! I need more! Anyway... Good job, Psycho-Pass :D You pass :) |

| Really good action. Decent story, but good visuals and ost's. I didn't see S2 but god damn was Shimotsuki fucking annoying. I didn't know here character so that might've influenced my decision. Would like a final movie to wrap up this series properly. |
| Big Order (TV):great anime or greatest anime? |
| I have to say, I really enjoyed this movie. Though, I find the engrish really awkward. I understand since the setting of the movie is outside Japan, but can't they just use Japanese? As time passes, Akane is increasing in bad-assery. Hahahaha. Ginoza....... *drools* I don't recall Shimotsuki being this annoying. Even though she's wiser, her attitude is more arrogant. Why doesn't her hue get clouded yet? Not sure if I would want a continuation though... |
