And that s tonight. The competitors are lined up at the starting block. In his vehicle, JP, the most daredevil driver on the circuit, is ready for the green light. Female driver Sonoshee, with whom he is secretly in love, is also on the starting line. She will stop at nothing to get on to that podium. In this race, not only is anything possible, but also anything is allowed. The film is produced by the studio MADHOUSE (Ninja Scroll, Summer Wars), directed by Takeshi Koike (The Animatrix's 'World Record') and written by Katsuhito Ishii (Piroppo, Trava). Review: Redline is Original, Redline is Exciting, Redline is the Most Breathtaking Visual Anime Ever... - I can't believe it took this long to get to America but thank god it actually got here, and in Blu-Ray. This movie is such an amazing, breathtaking accomplishment of modern Japanese animation that it makes it a must-see for anyone looking to see something new and exciting. The animation style is a seriously stylish mix of Samurai Champloo (the director was an animator for it), Heavy Metal, Speed Racer, J-pop neon color, F-Zero. This is the first anime I think I've seen that has a clear homage to American animation influences like Heavy Metal and Speed Racer, also to American Rock music (JP's hair is clearly Elvis-style). But what it does is mix all of this together with the Japanese style in such a cool and, ultimately, unique and visually captivating way. Since the movie has the advantage of being released in the digital, blu-ray age, we are given a COMPLETE SOURCE transfer. That means absolutely no specs, grains, washed-out colors, etc... This is the cleanest a hand-drawn animation can look without being done on a computer. That's why this movie is such a success. The sheer imagination and heart that went into the artwork makes a greatly convincing argument for the beauty and potential of hand-drawn artwork that has completely been absent from American animation. The music is the next best part. It starts out with the main anthem, "Yellow Line" and gets into the action right away with about an 8-minute race opening that right away captures the awesome feel that the rest of the movie will throw at you. It captivates the tone and emotions at the right points and even gets a little touching at some points as there is a small amount of melodrama to keep this movie from being without any depth, not that it's totally needed but it's a nice touch. The music captures that Redline has this soulful heart to it that you just latch on to. The story itself is not complex, but that's good because is if it got TOO convoluted in talking then we couldn't really enjoy the limits of animation that this movie pushes so well. The melodrama with JP and with himself and Sonoshee it makes the movie come together in the end that brings out the heart of the creators and staffers on the project that just makes this film special. I'm so happy this movie came out because I was really starting to mourn the end of Japanese animation, especially with the loss of Satoshi Kon. This movie has a soul and that makes it so much more necessary to witness. That brings me to my only complaint. The dubbing in English was done by Manga Entertainment. That means the dub was given a "typical anime" dub in English. While JP, Sonoshee, and Frisbee's voices are all fine there are other voices that are awkward and too anime that distracts from the universality of the animation. In Japanese, the voices are less cartoonish and more realistic, which makes the movie much better and more in line with the creator's vision. Thankfully, the English and Japanese tracks are both True HD so you can choose which one you like. Bottom Line: Get Redline. It's beautiful. It's inspirational. It's great. These animators deserve the money for making such an amazing work of art. It doesn't matter whether or not you like anime, this isn't an "anime" it's a Japanese animation and appeals to a wider swatch of people. It's exciting and the movie just goes by so quick because of how awesome it is. BUY THIS MOVIE!!!!!!!!! Review: A great film! - First off, the animation and art style is just beautiful to look at. The colors are so vibrant and the animation style itself just looks great. This is definitely a must watch for any fan of animation. The visuals alone will have you captivated for the entire movie. The story is not the most detailed nor the most serious, but it’s still good in my opinion. It has a lot of unique and colorful characters as well as some really interesting and over the top designs. It’s basically about a race tournament happening on this alien planet with all sorts of oddball characters joining in. The action is fast paced and is extremely over the top, paying homage to all sorts of anime cliches. Some might say that the story is simplistic and cliche, but honestly the way the movie executes it, it comes off really nice. The love story between the two main characters, while it is cliche, is still done really nice and heartfelt. It also helps that the characters are really likable. The whole movie just has this nice upbeat feel to it and it’ll definitely leave you feeling nice afterwards. Overall, this movie is cliche and over the top but EXTREMELY well executed and very enjoyable to watch. It’s not a deep thought provoking film. It’s just nice film you can have fun with. I highly recommend it. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 2,540 Reviews | | Format | PAL | | Language | Japanese | | Number Of Discs | 1 | | Runtime | 1 hour and 42 minutes | ## Images ![Redline [Blu-ray] - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91O9zQKDZnL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Redline is Original, Redline is Exciting, Redline is the Most Breathtaking Visual Anime Ever... *by G***S on February 12, 2012* I can't believe it took this long to get to America but thank god it actually got here, and in Blu-Ray.

Glad I did, gave me an excuse to watch Redline again. What a great movie, one of a kind. The musical cues are insane, of course so is the story and artwork, and voice acting... Redline is a must if you like racing, or you like Aliens in an alarming array of sizes, shapes and colors. And then there's Funky Boy, and the Army and the mob boss, so its got everything you usually look for in a racing movie about Roboworld and as a bonus it actually starts with the Yellowline to get you in the groove. Just a joy to watch, they just don't make movies like this anymore. The only way to top this is if Dorohedoro makes a racing movie with brooms. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/191358390-redline-blu-ray](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/191358390-redline-blu-ray) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-07-08*
