The uncle is old and strong, and there will be another bloody storm!

I believe that every film festival is willing to choose films with different styles and types to form a feast of films. Among them, there are often one or two that will cause greater controversy. Last year, Lars von Trier's "Anti-Christian" scared off many audiences. This year, Takeshi Kitano's "Extremely Wicked and Outrageous" challenged the limits of Cannes audiences with extreme violence and bloodshed.

Fans of Takeshi Kitano are very excited about his return to making gangster films. They thought that was Kitano's film. Grim editing, naked blood and violence, unexpected plots, generally vicious and distinct characters, and strong tension. Everything is so familiar, everything is so Kitano Takeshi. In addition to these elements, he can also show a self-deprecating black humor, which uniquely combines violent aesthetics with violent humor, which is the most important point that distinguishes him from other violent films. In addition, his grasp of performances and lines is still more dramatic due to his cross talk background. Taking his own performance as an example, it can be described as exaggerated but not impetuous and convincing. The actor's ability to calmly perform such an extreme film (at least it seems calm) is probably due to this. The only pity is Miura Yukata Uncle. Over the years, there have been too many distortions, and it is unbearable to recognize each other. The theme of the film is extreme, and I am afraid that it will miss the grand prize, but if the picture is happy, Kitano fans will not be disappointed.

Sure enough, I missed the grand prize, but it's too unimportant!
