Set several centuries into the future, the abandoned Alita is found in the scrapyard of Iron City by Ido, a compassionate cyber-doctor who takes the unconscious cyborg Alita to his clinic. When Alita awakens, she has no memory of who she is, nor does she have any recognition of the world she finds herself in. As Alita learns to navigate her new life and the treacherous streets of Iron City, Ido tries to shield her from her mysterious past.

Alita: Battle Angel (2019) is a fast-paced, sci-fi, action-adventure brought to us by renowned cinematic director Robert Rodriguez (Spy Kids; Elmaricahi). Join us as we discuss its pros and cons, including its anime origins, its translation to an enormous CGI-packed film, and its place in the overall canon of science fiction cinema. Listen as Johnny Has the Keys, sorts through the refuge, scavenging for the salvage of long-ago heroes and acknowledging their place in the present-day world.
