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
不知道是不是因为我很久之前就看过原帖 当时觉得这个故事简单又动人 电影反而没有那么打动我 可能也跟选角不贴有关吧
刚看到名字的时候，还以为是“那男的给我当了一年的舔狗”。。。
很美好，但是也很没有年代感，你说是新片，十年前老片，二十年前老片，都不为过…也许，任何年代的初恋，感觉都是一样的吧
别的总是有哪里没到位
男女主颜值都不行～脚本也很普通，没什么拿的出手的东西～
没能理解男女主结局的意义，安排刘浩存死亡的剧作动机在哪？我没有在之前的叙事中看到关于死亡、宿命等悲剧性铺垫。这些小镇青年当然有生存困境和精神枷锁，但并未明确指向时代洪流或阶级压迫，所以刘浩存撞向代表虚伪与资本的SUV这样的象征性结局会产生严重的语意偏差，寓意需要被强行解读才能出现。包括尹正游野泳被巨轮撞死，无非也是想表达小人物被时代碾压的意思，但在这样充满喜剧元素的轻快叙事节奏中显得非常突兀。而刘昊然飞跃失败对这个人物命运的作用又在哪里？他显然毫发无损，却要安排一场看起来比较严重的事故，不仅没有形成与刘浩存结局的对比，还令飞跃珠江这样的高潮沦为一个无效事件。冯绍峰和高利贷虽然担任了主角去广州的动机，但人物本身是多余的，顺风车的戏更多余。后半段叙事节奏几近失控
陪我度过我的青春
半星。大概半小时开始，如坐针毡、如芒刺背、如鲠在喉。起初以为韩寒只是拧巴，毕竟一边喜欢保罗·纽曼，一边认同着金鳞岂是池中物，这并不多见。但很快你就发现，他为了圆自己心中那个飞跃黄河的机车梦，可以罔顾客观事实，例如呼啸海风、轰鸣隧道、铁道路旁，人声可以碾压环境音，例如邮轮之下，多数人竟能存活。信贷危机、追梦少年、飞车阴阳局、淳朴爱情，哪个部分扩展开来，都比这样的杂糅好太多。城市梦魇的结论，非但没有升华立意，反倒像是垂死挣扎。唯一让我没有离场的原因，是韩寒多少还在意的摄影环节里，看看刘昊然和刘浩存的角色谈谈每个人都曾幻想过，却难以接近的恋爱。
一星給吉他社社長，一星給電影的歌曲
就像最后那场飞车一样前面还可以中途风向突转最后坠毁了
陪我度过我的青春
又或许，校园恋爱剧不再适合我 🤣
项微心真的蛮可爱欸!（台湾腔）
《四海》 一部关于青春与成长，悲欢离合交织的故事。
韩寒真的要寻求下突破了，小镇青年的故事看腻了，书面对话真的是尴尬又做作，昊然弟弟都救不回来的不好！
台湾的高中生这么夸张吗，成人演学生的世界太过于老道和熟练。
刘浩存和刘昊然本来可以有一个光明的未来
不解为什么刻意选择普通的男女主相貌…剧情略狗血，结尾时真的一直担心会车祸…
什么？！男主就是周兴哲？！
还不错啦，这部剧里的歌挺好听的，最后男主女主的双向奔赴爱情很不错
