this movie was actually really boring to me. I watched it right after I saw the drama version. It was just too…
The boring moment for you is great for me. Those silent moments of the movie was intended. Have you notice the theme when yui is on screen? ITS DARK when kouji is on screen its bright....then when they meet together its grayish, dark meets bright. How about the emotion when yui moved that post so that he can see kouji clearer in the morning(is that not romatic?). I seriously love this movie its so damn artistic, it even shown in cannes.
About the drama how can you fill those 10 eps without those annoying friends and their wachikness huh?
This is better than the drama. WHY??? cause the drama is like made for ratings THIS one is made for the sake of ART. I like the artistic view of the director i mean those silent moment of the movies.
The drama is different especially in the first episode the part where the main characters says "I love old books, not just because of the story inside, but because as they passed hand to hand....that writes its own story too" THEN a superb music comes the camera fading out books falling from the shelves. Brilliant directing!!!
The drama is great very informative. Clockwork Orange one of my all time favorite movie and I didnt know
that in the book it has different ending, first i didnt think what this drama tell is right but then I search
OMG the drama is right and they are right stanley kubrik gets all the credits for this one and burgess didnt.
They also mention famous writer like fujiko fujio ( doraemon creator ) and Edogawa Rampo. I even search cheburashuka
and it is real. Probably the most informative drama japan has produce. Pawn Stars should hire the her as their books expert LOL.
The female lead maybe not be fantastic actress but has this big AURA and huge screen presence, her face is unique not GENERIC JAPANESE FACE which is good.
This may sound stupid but I will not be surprised if one day I see him in some international film, hollywood casting directors didnt look for acting talent but their screen presence, BTW screen presence dont mean beauty( and I didnt find this girl beautiful ).
Kill bill 3 is in the plan chiaki kuriyama version 2? dead looks? probably.
This show is created for a certain audience meaning for rpg gamer only, you wont get the jokes unless you play rpg games specially dragon quest. Show for the geeks not for the chicks.
I watch many old classics samurai movies and toshiro mifune and tatsuya nakadai were gods of japanese cinema back then. Years and years have past I was looking for a modern japanese actor that can atleast match 1/2 of what mifune and nakadai gives, I found tadanobou asano and odagiri joe but I was looking for a younger one so that I can follow his career. BUT it's difficult since japanese cinema now is conquered by fangirl actors who can't act.
Lucky that japan cinema is not dead since I find this actor who I think will be the next nakadai or mifune (I HOPE). After seeing 13 assassins and byakuyakou i believe he has a chance to get the intensity that toshiro mifune gives, and his acting range is somewhat same with nakadai with movies densha otoko, crowzero, epic show yuusha yoshihiko, sekai no chusin(ironically yamada best role to date "matsumoto sakutaro" is the grandson of "Matsumoto Kentaro" PLAYED by nakadai) and recently milocrorze where he played 3 different roles.
He's also chosen by newyork festival as young rising star of 2011 and hollywood reporters top 10 young actor to look out for. His fanbase abroad is bigger than more famous actors in japan becuase of his films with takeshi miike and for his character Serizawa.
I have a feeling that he will go in the same path like actors toshiro mifune and tatsuya nakadai.
sakura ando stole the show for me. In my opinion her screen presence surpasses chiaki kuriyama in kill bill and her character is the best villian I seen in japanese cinema.
