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
你很难说它是杰出的电影，但生活本身自有其力量
看完后，我又觉得太阳会升起来了，人间真的有真情在，一切真的都好了起来，一片欣欣向荣
破三亿了，说实话首日就是靠黄渤，贾玲撑，周冬雨撑的三亿，剧情根本很脑残，就是一个打着疫情消费感情的烂片
现在这种把煽字写在脸上的电影真是越来越多了，煽情剧情设置的太刻意太明显，以至于几次都是情绪没到但眼泪下来了。周冬雨真灵气啊，几分钟的戏却让人无比喜欢又心动。与其这么刻意煽情，不如多找寻生活中的细节，不希望看到如此多的消耗疫情题材的作品了。
再见2021👋🏻
疫情中老百姓的温暖故事，大家言重了，挺暖的。
看完了，哭的眼睛都肿了，脑瓜疼
被老人那对儿感动到了，如果中国医生在讲医生，那么这个就是在讲普通人 ，虽然很多细节经不起推敲，也有刻意煽情的部分，两星，再多一星给奶奶和爷爷的故事
7分。配乐和各种剪辑，把电影整得不像电影。没什么电影艺术的美感。所以从“电影”的角度来看，总觉得它差点意思。但是如果抛开电影本身，将电影中的角色拎出来看，又会赞叹其中的美好。电影中的故事终究只是故事。
珍惜眼前人。倘若我能对这人间有贡献，那但凡有一天我早早离开了，也不遗憾。
不太及格啊。 配音口型都对不上，还有很多很尴尬的戏有点失望
而且作为抗疫电影，实在是不严谨，黄渤作为志愿者，口罩竟然时戴时不戴，还这么乐呵。当年的志愿者很多是被感染了的，朋友因为身边志愿者确诊，爸妈直接就让她在家隔离不要出去了。电影里面都没有展示出来。
中规中矩吧，叙事结构有点意思，构图不错……
所有的恐惧都会烟消云散。”
很普通的一部主旋律温情电影，各种各样的小故事组成，然后用一根线串起来，就这样……
作为一个武汉人，我很难完全客观地评价这部电影，太多熟悉的场景和镜头，太多平凡却伟大的人们。除了高亚麟那一组有点过于刻意，其他三组还是特别能打动我。苦难远没有消解，只是我们得向前看。
剧情太散了，而且也完全没有提现当时大家的紧张恐惧，不服输的精神，赶紧就是他们谈谈恋爱忽然就成功了，这……

故事有点乱，体现的价值观感觉不是很完美，这个分给抗疫题材吧，
玲姐内角儿，为啥要丢掉晓晓送的口红？为什么？？为什么？？？
