Patlabor : The Movie (Blu-ray) (English Subtitled) (Hong Kong Version) Blu-ray Region A

Patlabor, or Mobile Police Patlabor, is a classic name to anime fans. The police mecha franchise is the brainchild of Headgear, which consists of screenwriter Ito Kazunori, composer Kawai Kenji, scenarist Yuki Masami, character designer Takada Akemi, and, most notably, director Oshii Mamoru. The popular franchise has over the years spawned a manga, three anime series, and three feature-length films, the first of which was released in 1989. Directed by Oshii, the first Patlabor film, like other entries in the franchise, revolves around the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Special Vehicle Division 2 unit, which investigates crimes and accidents involving labors or labor robots.

In the center of the messy construction that is Tokyo Bay lies the Ark, a giant man-made steel tower island where labors are manufactured. One day, programmer Hoba Eichi jumps to his death from the Ark. Soon after construction and military labors begin to malfunction, going on destructive rampages on their own accord. SV.2 traces the source of the problem to a new software program that was recently installed to all labors, including possibly the police's own Patlabor team. The program was created by Hoba, seemingly as a deliberate plan to bring destruction, and the unit must figure out how to reverse its effects before it's too late.

With the rapid development of robotic hyper technology, a new category of humanoid-type machines called Labor has become widely applied in every industry field. However, Labor diffusion has created a new threat to social stability, as the same technology is increasingly being used for criminal purposes. In order to fight the so-called labor crime, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department has formed the Special Vehicle Unit, equipped with Labors designed to keep the public order. These patrol labors are commonly known as Patlabor. The year is 1999. Japan has concentrated 45% of its entire labor force in the ambitious Babylon Project, designed to save the Tokyo Bay area from being submerged as an effect of the sea level increment. For this purpose, a 500-meter wide and 150-meter high multy-level platform, called the Ark, has been built on the sea. The suicide of a mysterious man on the massive Babylon Project construction site sets off a cascade of events that may signal the eventual destruction of Tokyo. What is the connection between the suicide, the new Mobile Police AV-X0 Zero Labor, and a military prototype Labor suddenly gone berserk?
