Yeah, I saw it's limited UK showing in Manchester, England, where the film starts off in.
Its a great film, good story, good charactors, but above all, good execution of animation and CG.
Its also great for the sub genre 'Steam Punk' anime, which catagorises anime shows that have some underlining technical aspect with steam. The genre has great shows, but none are overtly popular outside of Japan. This film has brought some new light to old classics. From steam boy the only other popular Steam Punk anime is Sakura Taisen(Sakura Wars).
