Metropolis (2002)
Evil Duke Red plans to rule the world from Ziggurat, his newly completed art deco tower. A new robot is being developed by his henchman Dr. Laughton to control all the machines in the world from Ziggurat. Detective Shunsaku Ban and his nephew Kenichi arrive in Metropolis in pursuit of Laughton and are plunged into Red's plot. When the duke's maniacal adopted son Rock attacks Laughton's hidden lab, Kenichi and the waiflike android Tima flee into the city's subterranean slums and fall in love.
