      can't watch it because this shit is basically NTR, koreans need to learn that you can't give a moe chraracter like that a love interest.

    Last time I thoroughly enjoyed a Japanese movie was with Tokyo Sonata. That must've been like 15 years ago or something.

    I turned off the violence action about 20 minutes in. It was mentioned along baby assassins--which I liked--but they don't compare. BA is a low budget action flick made to show off the main girl's skills. VA is Kanna hashimoto in a pink wig

      >baby assassins
      worth seeing? premise sounds kinda like the fable which i liked

        Baby Assassins is very fun and comfy. The silly premise notwithstanding, it manages to stay away from "anime live action"-tier acting rather well

    I watched Yakuza: A Family (I think it was called anyway) and another one about a group of lawyers who take on a client who keeps changing his story, but the name escapes me.
    they were both pretty damn good tbqhwyfam, and I never watched any rapanese movies before.

      The Mike Hama movies are great, not sure if the TV show is also good but besides the 3 '90s movies, the 2004(?) movie by Shinji Somai (Forest with No Name) is very recommended

    Recent Japanese movie?
    I think the title was something like "nakadashi 13 times in busty teacher" or something like that.

    I think my most recent was Hana-bi. Quite good. Loved the aesthetic. My third Takeshi Kitano movie since Kikujiro and Outrage more than 10 years ago, and it was quite different to what I was expecting but quite good.

    Karate Bullfighter 1975 and yes. It has a crudeness to it like much of the 70's movies, but Chiba in his prime was so kino.

    Just wtf happened to Japanese cinema?

    They had the likes of Kurosawas, Kitano, Ozu, Kobayashi back then, but now their movies are nothing but utter camp anime trash and Worst Korea took over as the cinema powerhouse of Asia.

      They just became "normal" again. Kurosawa Ozu and Kobayashi at the peak of their powers gives Japan a case for having the highest peak in filmmaking quality for 20 or so years.
      The US and specific European countries had some flawless directors but Japan during that period was insane in terms of masterpiece output

      I'm going to get savaged for this but anime has a lot to answer for. Several generations raised on anime inject anime esthetic choices into everything they make. Like, modern Japanese acting is so fricking hammy, but it makes sense when you consider that they are behaving like anime characters. When they choreograph a fight scene, they're trying to make it look like an anime. The still camera shots, the color grading etc. It's all anime-like.

    This board is such shit that I never actually read J-cinema threads anymore. You people are all brown and moronic and just want to talk about porn and DragonBall... Making a Japan thread with actual kino will get you 25 replies by 3 people on a good day, just pathetic for a board about film.
    Sadly kaiju threads are the only good way to discuss J-cinema here.

    And no I didn't read the thread, homosexuals.

    It was ok. Good farewell and final film for me. I remember the movie ending and thinking "ok I think I seen enough of Japan".
    Then 2019 First Love came out in America and thought "no thanks".
    I did miss out watching Shinya Tsukamoto movies. I'll check them out one day.
    And yes I seen other Japanese movies other that Miike and Kitano's like the ones that get mentioned here all the time

    I watched Samurai Rebellion this morning and it was ok, a 7/10 film easily
    I got the impression that the Mifune character was being very childish and having a midlife crisis, he was being irresponsible even though the situation was outrageous
    Some of the dialogue was hilarious, it was awesome how rebellious and edgy the characters sounded like
    I vastly preferred Harakiri over Samurai Rebellion
    3 days ago I watched Sanjuro and I thought it was an excellent film, 9/10
    It was hilarious, much better than Yojimbo in my opinion
    Tonight I am going to watch I Was Born, But... by Ozu although I despise Ozu
    My favourite Japanese films are
    >Noroi the Curse
    >Seven Samurai
    >Harakiri
    >My Neighbour Totoro
    >Wolf Children

    The premise was great but I'm guessing it was based on a book or something so they tried to pack in too much stuff for a rather short movie.
