Rock is the one who have my most sympathy anyway since other characters have a good-ending for them. Ahhh….I like Metropolis too, it’s a good movie.

That's what prevents it reaching absolute awesomeness, which is a shame when it has so much going for it (the old-school Tezuka character designs, social commentary, music, the list goes on). If you're referring to the music played towards the end as the 'love it or hate it' thing though, I loved it. A classic song that fits the refreshingly different choice of score for the film as a whole. It's different but is still really powerful.
