This is close to flawless if you like action animation.
The animation itself is beautifully done. The marines are true to their design. The enemies are interesting.
The sound is superb. I can feel the heavy footsteps of the marines. I can feel the bullets tearing through the enemies.
But the piece de resistance is the action sequence itself.
The director perfectly chroreographed the action sequences. The action is fast, economical and brutal. It really sells the idea that the marines are fearsome, tactical fighting machines.
Furthermore the action is creative. There's more than a few setups where the action sequence is new to me and I didn't expect it to unfold that way. No copy paste action here. Just carefully thought out action.
As I was watching this, I wondered to myself why the big studios can't do something like this. I fell off my chair when I later learnt that this was done by one person.
This is a tour de force by one seriously talented director and animator.
