 This is an excellent film, and Goro Kishitani is very well cast. I do not believe the film is quite as good as the Kinji Fukasaku/Tetsuya Watari version of the 1970s, as it reveals somewhat less of the human being inside the monster, but it is still extremely good.
Anyone who likes Miike's other work will love this; So will many who do not, because it feels much more grounded in our world than many of his other films. |
