The first Patlabor film is probably the 2nd anime movie I've ever seen (after Akira) and at the time (12yrs), I found it to be dull with too little action. Now, years later, I think it's a great movie once you get used to Mamoru Oshii's directing.
The 2nd was less enjoyable to me, maybe because of the slower pacing, or maybe because I couldn't understand it due to the bad dubtitles being used. I should probably see it again just in case.
The manga is something I'm eager to try. It is translated here in French but it's hard to come by here because of the low-profile nature of Patlabor and they are expensive to get. Maybe someday...

Or just read the reviews at
AnimeOnDvd.com But I think it's safe to say that the original Japanese tracks are all there.
