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
“灭绝动物总动员”，可爱，故事一般，身体一个洞还是挺膈应人的。
感受到了浓浓的青涩感。
小朋友们在嬉笑间还可以学很多历史文化知识，比如：达尔文提出了进化学说、1417年郑和下西洋、1735年乾隆登基……
我说怎么有点迪士尼味，原来是老外导的。总体来说还行-----孩子喜欢看。剧情主线没啥创新的，几乎就是照搬《天才眼镜狗》+《愤怒的小鸟》。闲了可以带孩子去看看
勉强及格～选角与情节场景本来可以拍个不错的爆米花电影，可惜不知道谁的野心，要把地摊文学提起来黑色幽默一番，就很尴尬～喜欢看这类书的不会看出来讽刺，不喜欢看的不会懂其中的吐槽。
5岁和2岁的孩子们看得津津有味，我也看得挺轻松快乐！
桑德拉·布洛克，钱老板，哈利波特，皮特，这演员阵容不可谓不强，没想到演了这么一部网大性质的电影，只能说可能疫情对国外影视行业冲击也蛮大的，大家是真缺钱了，所以也不挑剧本了。皮特还好，虽然我一度把他认成了锤哥，但好歹帅了几分钟，哈利波特和大家在一起才发现这身高真是感人。两位主角一个演了个傻大个一个演了个矫情女，话说你们两根本一点都不来电在那里尬聊自己不尴尬我都觉得尴尬。黑人女助理是真壮。赌神里的音乐用得有点多了吧。
跟老公说：买了这么多乐高真浪费，拼完再也不碰了，要不你再拆开重新拼一下。他回击，“你买包不是也一样，这么多爱马仕都不用每天柜子里放放着，比我浪费多了”。瞬间哑口无言
#拯救甜甜圈：时空大营救#这种中美合作的动画很容易很尴尬 画风制作偏好莱坞内容故事还是太国产低幼 完全没觉得有意思 而且这个甜甜圈的形象也很奇怪 萌还算萌但是不会让人觉得讨喜 搞得时空穿越揉进去了太多中国元素但是并没用 小孩可能还能看的激动大人完全无感 这动画不能只学个形（6.5）
好可爱的甜甜圈 🍩 反叛修狗也可爱 整个画风就是可可爱爱的！
7分，属于合拍动画片里最不尴尬的那一类，最主要的是这个形象真的很可爱了！
看到还剩二十分钟去厕所了 也不知道算不算尿点...
本片适合40岁左右的中年妇女集体观看，建议以后电影分级制加上年龄。布拉德皮特算是唯一亮点。
最好看的就是钱老板的肉，光屁股丨@ Pathé De Kuip, 14 Apr 2022
而我早在不知不觉间悄然地把爆米花收进包包里。
谁说我们不需要烂片。Channing在脱衣舞男之前就已经是我儿时偶像，谁让他又帅跳舞又好看。他在布拉德皮特出场镜头的星星眼那段，简直太好玩了，后者竟然没死太棒了，真的还想再看看只会正经的硬汉如何在耍宝电影中找到自己的定位！
蛮无聊的，小朋友看了一般般，大人看了也一般般
Mark一下，今天儿子跟奶奶去看了他人生中的第一场电影，听奶奶说看得特别高兴。老母亲依旧很欣慰。
作为一部喜剧片还是可以啦，当然我只认为它是喜剧片，看见男主我就会发大水惹，火舌招惹，我鼠了，想舔
