Was it REALLY anime, though? It just seemed more like an animated sequence, and not necessarily anime. The characters didn't seem to have the exaggerated features.

For me, it went on for so long, really taking you out of the movie. Had it been shortened and not so over-the-top with the violence, it would have gotten to the point and effectively given her some background. It was also a bit foolish to have Uma relay information that you really don't think she'd have so much of. I know the sequence wasn't supposed to reflect what she knew, but it should have, and been a bit more direct.

And it was so out of place, too. If they'd had more scenes like it, it would have been a great technique. But it just jumps out of nowhere, and nothing ever comes of it. It'd be like if Uma started rapping when she got out of her coma.
