    It is rare to describe a samurai from such a humane perspective, and it is not often that someone who exposes the hypocrisy of Bushido incisively and vividly. They attacked a man with a bamboo sword in his hand and killed a man with his bare hands. After defeat, he was helpless, and when insulted, he drew his sword and cut his belly. The bravery of Bushido is nothing but this. This is a very sad movie. Don't compare, one life is one life, and cutting the abdomen is cutting the abdomen. The...

    Three and a half. "One Life" is the epitome of the contrast between the styles of Heisei and Showa. "One Life" is longer than the daily delicate engraving, freeing up a lot of space for the bleak life of Hanshiro's family due to poverty and lowness These details are really touching. Kung fu is spent in small and small places, but it lacks the tight and sharp rhythm of Showa's cutting abdomen, the tolerance of large-scale ink, and the critical spirit of in-depth reflection on Bushido. This is...

    It is a remake of the 1962 version of "Cut the Belly" directed by Kobayashi Masaki and starring Nakadai Tatsuya. However, from the story line to the character details, Takashi Miike has changed a lot, and some of the changes are very good (for example, this time it is no longer "Tsuyun Banshiro". The character's one-man show, because the other supporting characters are fuller), some are doubtful (the ending changes are more obvious, and the effect can only be said to be average, although the...

    The hypotheses were finally forced to come true, but they were understandable from a motivational point of view. But Japan is a country that would rather make fearless sacrifices for the sake of principle. China too, the spirit of face. Such reflection is...

    Look at the old and the new at the same time. It must be said that the changes are too good. Rich and reasonable details make up all the defects of the old version. From highlighting Jinyun's popularity, other characters are blurred and flat, and each character is displayed in three-dimensional and vivid group portraits. Under the shadow of the samurai's way, glory, and face, holding the dead in his hands, there is no one in his eyes, no life, let alone sympathy. Miike's intention to change the...
