The city that kills fast - "Zatoichi"
When the forum released "Zatoushi", I didn't download it, because I was quick to see it as "Baotou City", cut it! What is there to see in Baotou City? It is said that modern times are not as good as Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen, and that the scenery is not as good as Xi’an, Nanjing, and Hangzhou. Oh, it turned out to be Takeshi Kitano's "Zatoichi", and it was the film that won the "Best Director Award". I'm disrespectful, so I quickly came down and watched it.
The martial arts films...

The meaning behind the performance
This is the third work by Takeshi Kitano that I have seen. The first two are "Kiujiro's Summer" and "Extremely Wicked". For "Chrysanthemum", I really feel the kind of capture of the source of happiness for children. capture and warm care; for "Pole", I have truly seen the typical violent aesthetics in Kitano Takeshi's works, as well as the aftertaste and emotional things after the violent aesthetics. The third drama I just happened to watch is no longer a modern drama. How to interpret the...

Regarding "Zatoichi"
, let's first talk about what "Zatoichi" is. This term is actually composed of two parts - "Zatou" and "city". "Zatou" is the name of a professional title. During the Edo period, there was an organization in Japan to protect the professions of blind people, called "Daoza". "Zuotou" is the last level of the organization's four major titles (inspection, dangdang, activity, and zutou). , Acupuncture and moxibustion for the blind. "City" is the protagonist's name. Before...

Personally, I think the film is a humanistic and philosophical drama with the appearance of violence. The understanding of cause and effect is expressed through different characters' understanding of survival, greed, and the way desire is satisfied. That is, when you do anything for greed, no matter how strong you are now, you will always get what you deserve when you eventually lose power.
A variety of characters have enriched the plot, such as sinister and cunning or scheming or drifting...

First, when fighting, one person fights a group, and the people behind don't fight at all, and they dance back and forth with weapons. It's ridiculous.
Second, what is the knife made of? It can stab into the door with a single sword and lift it up. Even the most advanced technology in modern times cannot achieve such knife work.
Third, blood splatters on people's bodies. Anyone who has cut people knows that as long as they don't cut the aorta and cut them on the chest,...

All sorts of cold humour, but if you want to say how good it is, I can only blame me for not knowing Zatoichi and the genre. The weird place is too...

What a weird movie, it vaguely reveals a cult temperament, the story itself is quite mediocre, there are occasional flashes of laughter, and the song and dance at the end is the highlight, but does it have a lot to do with the movie itself? The action part is not as smooth as kung fu movies, and the blood is a lot worse than Quentin. It's more like a self-entertainment by Takeshi Kitano. Who reminded me of "Three Guns" at the end of the film, and the dead were not...

Take, take, take, take. The string of blood beads that flew from the knife. The kick at the end, the tripping rant, was damn good. huh huh...

4 "I can't see clearly even with my eyes wide open." Instead of being a person with clear eyes, it is better to be a blind person, which will make opponents underestimate, and even lower the vigilance of many people. Even, Zatoichi probably wouldn't open his eyes when he killed someone, and even the slightest change could leave traces in his ears, which was bigger than the visual impact. In the last scene, when I open my eyes, I get tripped, which is ironic. Quietly listen to this ever-changing...

I really don't feel the blood sprayed, but the action design is really top-notch. Every time I swing a knife and strike a fatal blow, several action scenes end at a very fast rhythm. The middle narrative is the geisha sister and brother. Memories also add color to the movie. It's a little more feminine. The half-hour end is the most exciting duel between Hattori and Zatoichi. The wonderful soundtrack and the tap dancing in kimono are really not inconsistent at...
Shinkichi: I'll have a bath.
Geisha Seitaro 'Osei' Naruto: Me, too.
Shinkichi: No! Men first!
Geisha Seitaro 'Osei' Naruto: I am a man!
Shinkichi: I have to say, it's incredible. You really look like a woman! Does make-up make men beautiful?
Geisha Seitaro 'Osei' Naruto: It doesn't work on everyone. It depends on the face!
Zatôichi: [Last lines: Zatoichi trips on a rock while walking down a road] Even with my eyes wide open, I can't see anything.
