Cyborg 009: Call of Justice I (2016) - full transcript

[rumbling]

[bullets firing]

Damn it.

Where the hell is the enemy?

002, 003, come on.

Don't take all day now.

[sputters]

[gasps]

[eye whirs]

[grunts]

[whimpering]

[gasps]

Joe.

[pop music playing]

Ivan, I've got your milk.

[woman chuckles]

[woman, via communicator]

Listen.

Behave yourselves. I mean it.

[man, via communicator]

Yeah, yeah.

[sighs]

Ms. Davenport, what exactly

do you want to hear from us?

Why come all this way?

It's urgent. Needless to say,

it concerns your past.

Our past?

Don't be clueless.

I mean what the U.N. and world

governments have covered up,

all those military actions

you were involved in.

[gasps]

Military actions, you say?

Doctor, we--

[clears throat]

There seems to be

some sort of misunderstanding.

No, I don't believe so.

This photo was taken in 1965.

At that time,

a giant robot appeared in Tokyo,

causing a huge uproar.

As I'm sure you can see, the man

in this photo is clearly you.

And this one was taken

the following year,

1966, in Vietnam.

The man standing

next to that odd-looking,

high-tech black weapon,

that's you, isn't it?

And later that year

in the Aegean Sea,

a volcanic island

suddenly exploded and sank.

There, the person flying

right beside the eruption,

that would be you, correct?

Oh, believe me,

I have plenty more photos

of you people.

1967, the Middle East.

-1975, Bolivia.

-[scoffs]

1976, Venezuela.

1979, Southeast Asia.

1985, New York.

Whenever some kind of conflict

or crisis has occurred,

there have also been multiple

sightings of you people,

and in every case,

you looked exactly

the way you do right now.

Just how do you explain

all of this?

You people are cyborgs,

aren't you?

Built by Dr. Gilmore.

[stammers]

Impressive research.

You have us

all figured out, then?

Of course I do.

Japanese national.

Possesses the ability

to move at supersonic speed.

Listen, I've got to be

honest with you.

It's hard to believe

the technology

for advanced cyborgs

already existed in the sixties,

and yet the truth is that's

exactly what all of you are.

Yes, your hunch was correct.

Like you said, we're cyborgs.

But know this.

None of us became one by choice,

and we haven't been fighting

under anyone else's

orders either.

[Joe] Where am I?

[footsteps]

Who are you?!

[gas hissing]

[weakening]

What are you doing to me?

[groans]

Where am I?

[gasps]

Huh?

[machine guns firing]

[screams]

I'm--I'm alive.

Impossible.

[clanking]

[grunting]

[yells]

What's happened to me?

[Dr. Gilmore]

Well done, 009.

You've passed

with flying colors.

We were abducted and changed.

It was Black Ghost,

a mysterious organization.

They are responsible.

We were created as a new breed

of soldiers for the nuclear age

so that Black Ghost

could take over the world.

So you're saying

you had no idea of this

when you took on the job?

None at all.

I was under the impression

that I was doing research

to augment human capabilities

through science and cybernetics.

Black Ghost also said

that our subjects were donors

who agreed

to participate voluntarily.

Dr. Gilmore, he was the one

that figured out

their diabolical intentions.

He took us under his wing,

and together

we fought back against them.

And then? Whatever became of it,

this Black Ghost organization?

Uh...

[sighs]

After a prolonged battle,

we finally did it.

Against all odds,

we successfully destroyed

Black Ghost.

[Black Ghost] Foolish boy.

That won't have

any effect on me.

No matter what you use, no power

in existence can annihilate me.

[Joe] What did you say?

[Black Ghost] You might

succeed in destroying me,

but that doesn't mean

you've brought about

-the demise of Black Ghost.

-Hmm?

And that's because

the being you see before you

is nothing more

than a single cell

of what you call Black Ghost.

Some kind of barrier.

Utterly futile.

Then how 'bout this?

I'm not going to give up.

I will never do that!

Listen to me. If you're

nothing but a single cell,

then I'm going to destroy

every last cell in sight,

right down to the last one.

Is that so? Impossible.

And why?

Because in order to kill

every incarnation

of Black Ghost,

you'd have to kill every

single human being on Earth.

Huh? What do you mean?

Just what I said.

Black Ghost was created from

what lurks inside human souls,

a monster created

from the malice

and unseemly desires of humans.

You see? It's unstoppable.

[grunts]

009, watch this now.

It's the end of Black Ghost.

It's like a science fiction

story, isn't it?

I guess that's what it

might sound like to you.

All right, then.

Assuming this is all true,

after you destroyed Black Ghost,

why did you and your people

continue fighting?

Even though Black Ghost

had been destroyed,

there was still war

in this world.

You see, we knew we could help,

so we battled suspect parties

and led covert operations

behind the scenes

of international conflicts.

So to continue your cover,

you established

the Gilmore Foundation?

Yes, exactly.

But, of course,

once the Cold War had ended,

that was the end

of that as well.

[Dr. Gilmore]

I do remember it.

It happened several weeks

after that

historic U.S.-Soviet summit.

At United Nations headquarters

in New York,

a meeting was held

concerning major powers

reducing

their armaments stockpiles,

and it was afterwards

that things went south.

The end of the Cold War

will usher in

an era of peace for us all.

Please, Dr. Gilmore.

You must be aware

that the Communists

aren't our only enemies.

It's very likely that a new foe

will confront us soon enough.

You can rest assured.

These enemies you describe

are exactly

what my Zero-Zero cyborgs

will be on the lookout for.

With them operating

under the banner

of a so-called "Mini U.N.,"

we will pursue our goal

of maintaining world peace.

So, gentlemen, I hope that

you'll seize this opportunity

- to achieve disarmament--

-That's the problem right there.

They have the powers

of a small nation's military.

With such powerful weaponry

there in your hands,

who can guarantee

that you yourselves

won't emerge

as that new world threat?

Wait. What are you saying?

No.

After we had done so much

to save their lives,

it was a slap in the face.

[Joe] Still, after all their

crowing about being immortal,

we did manage

to annihilate Black Ghost,

so it's not like nothing good

came out of it, right, Doctor?

What are you saying?

The organizations

that had profited

from the Cold War,

every one of them imploded

after the tensions were erased.

Although, we've entered

the 21st century,

and the world is now

a more unstable, dangerous place

than it has ever been before.

-It was our opportunity.

-Hmm?

We just want to live ordinary

lives like everyone else.

Let others have the task

of maintaining

the peace of the world.

Well, that wish came true.

The U.N.'s finally mustered

its own standing army

to fight terrorist threats.

What are they called,

the Guardians?

And what about

the global terrorist attack

a few years ago,

the one that triggered

the creation

of those very Guardians?

There's evidence

showing you people

were involved

in that incident as well.

Do you realize

how many innocent lives

were lost in Dubai

during those nuclear attacks?

[gasps] That's enough!

If you're so sure

we did all that,

then why did you bother

setting up this meeting with us?

Why not report

whatever you want?

And then just leave us alone.

That day, even though we'd

foreseen that nuclear strike,

the fact is we failed

to put a stop to it.

We've been fighting

for as long as I remember,

over half a century now.

We just want to live in peace.

If after all this, you still

don't believe our story,

you're more than welcome

to publish

whatever you want about us,

because we have

nothing to hide.

It's up to you.

I see.

My apologies. The truth is

I came here to discuss

something else entirely.

Eh?

My father thought

very highly of all of you.

I truly believe you're

the only ones who can help,

but I had to know.

That's why I did

so much research.

I couldn't be sure

you were really

on the side of justice

as my father said.

The evidence points either way.

I wanted to find out for myself.

I beg of you,

Earth needs your help.

Are you willing

to fight for peace another time,

just as you did before?

[gasps]

You mentioned your father.

May I ask who he is?

Dr. Timothy Davenport.

He was a molecular geneticist.

Ah, Dr. Davenport, yes.

A brilliant

and well-respected man.

I've read several of his papers,

but we never had

the opportunity to meet.

My father admired

and worshipped you all,

and he told me

that no one but you

could drag this enemy out

of the shadows and defeat them.

Enemy?

[Dr. Gilmore] Is there something

I'm not seeing in these?

What you really need to focus on

in these photos

is not the fact

that you're all in them.

Look closer.

What is that?

Hold on a minute.

Different hairstyles

and facial hair,

but that's the same person.

Are you serious?

But now that you mention it--

Well, that's simply impossible.

This enemy

that you've told us about,

are you talking about this man?

No. They can be found

all over the world.

Their race and nationality vary,

but there's one specific trait

that they share,

immortality.

At the very least,

terrifying longevity.

My father wrote about that.

No way. You mean,

you're saying that they're

all cyborgs, the same as we are?

No, not at all.

For centuries now, these people

have wandered among us

unnoticed and undetected.

[G.B.] Hold up. Centuries?

What are they, vampires?

G.B.

The three of you

are way too gullible.

[sighs]

Guys. Come on.

Didn't I tell you to behave?

Now, now. It's not

like the girl's car

was rigged in any way.

There's no tracking device.

She's clean.

Just an ordinary rental.

Forget about all that.

I want to hear more

about this immortality thing.

What intel have you got?

Strangely enough, they seem

to be not unlike vampires.

However, they make

Dracula look tame.

They're far more cunning

and inhumane.

Oh, come on.

That's some conspiracy theory.

You're saying

that for centuries,

mankind's been manipulated

by a band of immortals?

Is that so hard to believe?

How 'bout it, Mr. MI6?

You ever heard

of something like that?

No, never.

They didn't come up

at the CIA, either.

What do you mean by that?

After we closed down,

we went our own ways,

all working

for a period of time

in our respective

home countries,

special forces,

intelligence, and the like.

None of the world's intelligence

agencies reported this,

so how do you know

so much about it?

It's terrifying precisely

because no one has any clue.

And I wasn't the one

who discovered them.

It was my father.

He was the one who first

saw through their secrecy

and got killed trying to expose

their existence to the world.

What's that?

Something my father told me

to give you if we ever met.

I've kept it safe

all these years.

What's inside of it?

I don't know.

He also said

I should never open it.

Father said

it's a dreadful thing

only two people are

qualified to handle,

Dr. Gilmore and Ivan Whisky.

[Dr. Gilmore] Oh.

Hmm.

An insect?

No. A robot, maybe?

[gasps] Doctor, that object

is emitting radio signals.

Is it, really?

[thunder crashing]

[gasps]

What is it?

[ice crackling]

[Françoise]

Wait a minute.

It's only around this farm.

The temperature and

air pressure are nose-diving.

[gasps] A blizzard

in the heart of Texas

this time of year?

Huh?

What in the world

is going on out there?

I should have known. It's them.

They've found where I am.

Oh, no.

[Joe] Hey, come back!

Geronimo, go after her,

and stop her.

[yelps]

Let go of me!

Let me go!

You don't understand!

I left some important documents

in that car!

[Françoise, via communicator]

004, above you!

[gasps]

You gotta be kidding.

Françoise,

any luck on your end? [winces]

It's no good.

With it storming,

I can't see or hear anything.

[Albert] I got this.

Whoa! Look out!

How can you...

Our bodies

are especially durable.

We can keep this up all day.

[Françoise]

It's everywhere.

Accelerator!

[thunder crashing]

[ballad playing]
