a mix between yakuza genre and surrealism. a very good movie, and one of the best Miike movies i ever saw. The acting is perfect. i really like the sunset color in some of the scenes. I heard this movie supposed to be just like another yakuza movie, but Miike decided to change the script and voila...he created another masterpiece again.
it's better than Pornostar, Toyoda's previous effort. The story is kinda unpredictable just like real high school student :)
The cinematography is beautiful and the soundtrack is quite good..
i think Blue Spring successfully captures every aspect in high school life in Japan.
i can't say how much i love this movie. this is the movie that make me a cinephilia like now. i watched it at high school and i still love it now.its like a visual diary of a deppressing man.
a story about some schoolgirls who liked to get some perv in order to get extra cash. the direction is very innovative, hey used a mini digital camera, and mounted it in some unusual places, like inside the bowl of food and inside the girl's skirt.
yay i finally watch this movie.. the movie itself is like a "Godfather" of a teen movie for me.. its ahead of time when it wa released. things that make this film different and unique are the dialogue that sounds weird sometimes (exp." fucking me gently with a chainsaw"), a dark and absurd tone, and the psychotic J.D. The Ending is quite good for me although the original ending is superior..
one of the best example of black comedy genre. i love how they can put a social commentary about how hard to live a good life in this modern days into a comedic and campy film like this.. everything about this film is hilarious.
some segment feels flat and boring, but some are really great and very touching.. my fave are the nigerian guy segment, Coen bros. segment, mime segment, vicenzo natali segment, and alexander payne segment :D
Kala is one of the most unique indonesian movie ever. it blends italian giallo, noir, and indonesian supernatural element. into a visually beautiful movie that never been created in indonesian cinema before
