About this movie

Atsuko is a psychiatrist who uses advanced technology to study the human mind. Atsuko has developed a machine that will allow her to enter the dreams of her patients and study their psyches from the inside. Atsuko also does double duty as Paprika, a high-tech detective who uses this new innovation to find out the truth about what the people she's trailing really think. However, Atsuko falls victim to a thief who steals the one-of-a-kind machine, and Paprika sets out to find it as a wave of psychological instability tears through the city. 2006 Madhouse, Inc. and Sony Pictures Entertainment (Japan) Inc.

Movie is beautiful. The colors pop and visuals are disturbing/gorgeous. Hands down fav animation film with only Perfect Blue right behind it (another Kon film.)

The whole movie feels very surreal and has great animation. At times it was kind of hard to keep track of the plot because so many things would be going on all at once but overall it was a very fun and interesting movie.

Amazing, it really showed how much people in the inside are different on the outside (persona). And the visuals are great too! Whoever made this sure knows how to make a good movie (I know he made perfect blue too)
