Synopsis:
Fans of classic anime will delight in this awesomely retro sci-fi extravaganza teeming with pop-psychedelic visuals and whiz-bang-pow action. Assembled from a selection of episodes from the popular 1970s Japanese television series, GATCHAMAN: THE MOVIE brings together the original color-coded teenage superheroes known as Gatchaman, bird-suited ninja warriors who must fight to save the Earth from an intergalactic terrorist organization threatening world peace. With its comic-book verve, this touchstone of golden-age anime helped shape the team-superhero genre for decades to come.
