When making recommendations, I typically try to ensure something is "cyberpunk" rather than ensuring it's "good". After all, this community is for "cyberpunk" content, not "my random list of recommendations".

But I'm not going to try with this one. It isn't cyberpunk. I'll call it cyberpunk-adjacent though simply because of the mood of this movie. Plus, it's a really good movie. And the animation is incredible. You could call it style over substance, but there's a lot of style in this movie.

Redline is about an illegal car race which draws in racers from all over the galaxy. This year, the race has been chosen to run on a planet called Roboworld, who definitely do not want the race to happen on their planet. So it's sci-fi, it's weird, and it's a gorgeous film made by Madhouse.

Here's a trailer. I don't think it's streaming anywhere right now but if you ever get a chance, definitely watch it.

It's one of my favorite movies. The car designs are great, the plot is great, animation is fantastic. Do yourself a favour and give it a watch, it's a hell of a ride.

What is Cyberpunk?

Cyberpunk is a science-fiction sub-genre dealing with the integration of society and technology in dystopian settings. Often referred to as “low-life and high tech,” Cyberpunk stories deal with outsiders (punks) who fight against the oppressors in society (usually mega corporations that control everything) via technological means (cyber). If the punks aren’t actively fighting against a megacorp, they’re still dealing with living in a world completely dependent on high technology.
