This 1992 Japanese film tells the story of a scientist who sets out to create the new "super Adam and Eve", humans who cannot be controlled by their emotions. Of course, the end result it not exactly what the good doctor expects.
comments from imdb:
This modern tale of an attempt to build a creature is one of the best "horror" films ever made, even if its not a horror film but something else entirely. Certainly its on my short list of all time great films.
This film was introduced to me by someone who told me "I have this film that probably one of the best films you'll ever see. It will move you and touch you and make you think, but if I told you what it is and told you how its done you will think its the stupidest thing on the face of it and you won't watch it." Intrigued I asked what did he mean, and he said, "Well its a Frankenstein story, with a very goofy sort of edge, but which uses it to its advantage." My ears perked up, and I being a trusting soul took the tape and watched it. I was blown away.
The plot concerns a mad scientist attempting to make a new Adam and Eve in the wake of a suicidal plague that is ravaging the world. Locked up in his lab his experiments go differently then either he or we expect. Some of it is silly (The bolts in the neck, the wrestling moves...), all of it is touching and thought provoking.
I can not recommend this movie enough. If you are willing to take the film on its terms and allow it to tell its story then I urge you to seek this film out and see it. This is an undiscovered gem that will stay with you forever.
15 out of 10 and then some. 10/10
Also known as "The Last Frankenstein", this is an extraordinary, impeccably produced horror film. Director Takeshi Kawamura uses Mary Shelley's novel as a mere launching pad for an exploration of subjects as diverse and fascinating as the nature of love, desire, suicide, mass hypnosis, sex, alienation and jealousy.
And though the film is dense with subtext, it is also stunningly photographed and rich in atmosphere and detail. The performances are all amazing and Kawamura's sensitive handling of the strange, delicate relationships between the characters results in an emotionally charged, angst-ridden tragedy.
The scenes of the confused, troubled monster hurtling through a fog-shrouded forest at night are memorable and striking, as is a brilliant home movie-style montage of the film's more curious characters enjoying a precious afternoon at the beach. Kawamura creates resonating visual poetry of horror and sadness barely sighted since Todd Browning's classic "Freaks".
Intelligent, emotional, tragic and real, this is an absolute gem. 9/10
节奏太快，设定奇幻，逻辑不科学。就像知道那个中国女的是黑人女的现任么？
用脚写的剧本都能比这强，强行煽情注水，套路化工具人角色，毫无末世气质，逻辑随时随地硬伤，阴谋论又老又俗，看似特效大片其实棚拍痕迹严重，场景规模小气得要死。不过也算在意料之中，不是陪朋友我本身也不会来看这部片，只能说电影的社交意义远压过了本体质量。
太乱了也，还有于文文这个角色到底是啥？女主的保姆还是伴侣？感觉都很诡异啊。
不知道这位导演是不是过于讨好中国市场了，基本部部都得跟中国借个东西借个人
本来早早吃完药该睡了的，可是后面太精彩了居然多看了半个多小时，如果这是一部电影，我给他八分，因为它没有拍出电影质感和长度深度，明明可以拍的更好，却没有更加努力。这是一段对赘婿吉吉国王人设的巧妙过度，是对大圣娶亲，紫霞和至尊宝的致敬，是现代版的紫霞仙子和吉吉国王的故事，是王者荣耀紫霞和至尊宝的cp延展，是赘婿里的大圣娶亲，是现代的我们对紫霞和至尊宝今天的回答。
可能设定本身就是最大的原罪吧，好好地灾难片非要加入科幻元素，我就是单纯的想看月球毁灭，结果告诉我月球是人造的，空心内部亿万年前人类最后残存的家园。所以落点是让现在的人类警惕AI意识觉醒吗？灾难不够灾，科幻不够新，亲情不够煽，逻辑又太多硬伤，确实是泛善可陈，9点多亿的投资，华谊实惨！
没有完整看，超瞌睡边看确实影响观感。最后悬念揭晓的脑洞很大，可是展开的不好。本来完全可以沿着人类元祖创造月球迁徙到其他星球来展开科幻解读，然而导演是出了名的末日导演，非要把故事重点着手于月球撞地球，地球被折腾成末日的角度来讲。末日下很多人疲于逃命，但仍有人作恶，所以要增加追车戏份；有小年轻要看电影，所以要有小年轻谈恋爱；要表现父母的伟大，所以要死一个爹；要拯救世界安全归来，所以地球再惨，手机永远能打通电话，GPS定位一直有效，不管宇宙里乱成啥样子了，卫星都有没有了。月球离地球越来越近，造成乱吸现象，能吸走导演让吸走的，不让吸的就没事。好好的末日故事被宇宙探索搅和，或者反过来说，两头都占了，两头都没讨好。
当时看香蕉的时候，吉吉国王就是我的快乐源泉。
一个笨拙尴尬的故事，可有可无的支线，说不通的技术手段。就是场面还可以吧。男主颜值依然在线啊，哈瑞是不是很久没演戏了，演起来像路人。
“与其要求允许，不如祈求原谅。”
还挺不错的吧，稳定围绕地球运行的月球有没有可能偏离原来的轨道，我们都可能这样想过，在电影中，导演就以月球不知什么原因慢慢偏离了原先的轨道，越来越接近地球。大场面的灾难特效非常震撼，月球靠近地球引发的一系列灾难都有所呈现，潮汐加剧、引力减少、氧气减少、地震等等，一系列月球坠落的后果呈现的非常完美。指挥部剧情让人觉得很无脑，但导演真的脑洞打开，本以为最终要毁掉靠近的月球，没想到最后还要靠月球来保护地球，剧情峰回路转，扩展到整个宇宙进化的深度。
当时看香蕉的时候，吉吉国王就是我的快乐源泉。
脑洞很大，科幻灾难要素齐全，台词也搞笑的但略微降智。罗兰艾默里奇真的和地球有仇。光看特效就够了真的。
好莱坞果然在退步啊……
有些想法设定还是不错，但是这剧情也太“自我复制”了吧，剧情上的想象力全无。
4星献给致敬的光晕 普罗米修斯 和林奇先生，还有魔兽世界《What Makes Us Strong》0343
正能量➕搞笑！很棒！
按电视剧的番外看就也还好吧，居然看完了。。。嗯，忽略我还刷着小视频一起。。。
互联网巨头拍的轻喜剧，内容自然要赞颂互联网商业模式。
罗兰·艾默里奇电影的特效是和毁灭地球的的态度是不会让我们失望的，最后也还是靠着小人物的挺身而出，拯救了世界。。。 本片依旧多了很多中国的元素。
