Crusher Joe: The Movie
Being one of the earliest films done by Sunrise, Crusher Joe doesn't particularly stick out well as a sci-fi film focusing on Joe and his group of space mercenaries called Crushers getting caught up in a criminal conspiracy in what they thought was a simple escort mission. The characters all fill their specific character types typical of 80s sci-fi titles where there isn't much depth provided to them and the plot is nothing extraordinary either when more about the criminal conspiracy is unveiled. A rather interesting fact about this film is that it is made by the same creator of Dirty Pair; which would eventually surpass this series in popularity, spawn more anime adaptations than Crusher Joe only getting another two-episode OVA series, and the Lovely Angels even make a cameo appearance during a movie theater screening within this movie. Overall, this is yet another forgettable 80s anime romp with nothing that particularly sticks out with it.
