not too bad

It was very nasty at the time. . Just watched. When I found Kitano, I felt no loss, hahaha. To sum up, I feel that although some Japanese movies are perverted at every turn, they always want to express some so-called emotions & theories, but they are often superficial, and instead are viewed by some audiences as horror movies, unaware of the sadness of the audience. Or the sadness of the filmmakers. What I want to say is that sometimes it is more powerful without the distortion of blood and stumps.

    Although there are a lot of bloody and violent scenes in the movie, this is not a "cool movie" simply to show the aesthetics of violence. Director Fukasaku Shinji is exposing the evil and also discovering the good - the beauty of human nature is the theme of this film . In this blood-splattered film, the dystopian setting and the rules of the survival competition are no longer important. A series of shots such as head grenades and naked Barbie impact the audience's bottom line of cognition and acceptance. the most important thing.

    The first time I watched it in junior high school, I was a little scared, but after watching it several times, I felt that it really analyzed human nature very thoroughly! /Actually, I want to say that I saw this movie at a specific time, which had a great impact on my three views, and made me feel negative, pessimistic and even hopeless when I found my identity for a long time.
