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
架空历史的起源故事和热衷于发便当和仪式感的编剧，让这部王牌特工的起源故事无功无过勉强及格。但我不喜欢，相比于古早的刀锋绅士对决，我更喜欢现代科技下的枪林弹雨视觉轰炸。
【4分】忘记骂这部了，马修沃恩你是不是有病。
莫名了个奇妙，大佬特工年衰体弱培养儿子成为精英二代继承衣钵，然后儿子就死了？？？合着这也是个工具人，老头子自己才是主角，这神马玩意儿？除了最后一战还有那么一咪咪可看，前面各种皇帝剧情简直稀碎，都不知道在作甚。
各方面无不稀碎…老伦敦正米字旗的杀人能叫杀人吗？日已落帝国只能追忆追忆残存荣光…
我要审视质疑彷徨于自己对马修沃恩导演多年的喜爱了，真的是他编剧导演的？亮点是几场动作戏＋OST＋剪辑，王男系列的延续。荒诞剧情夹杂了很多莫名其妙的表达，黑列宁很难忍，带嘤人脑袋有包，祝福苏格兰吧。从拉郎的角度看，谢诺菲留斯·洛夫古德试图强上伏地魔，hp粉丝狂喜。同时恭喜劳德和古迪人到中年和当年脸老师一样拓宽了动作戏戏路。
一定是因为康纳长得太正常（shuai）了，我才忽略掉了王男一贯的谐谑风格。等他一挂掉，突然剧情就变得好笑了起来！事后想想他的死因也蛮好笑的（允悲……）公爵也是不容易，不仅要跟反派斗智斗勇被牵着鼻子走，还要时刻对抗自己的幸运E体质。山崖那段实在太好笑了！以及，丹布存活我很满意❤
又臭又长，boss毫无悬念，剧情有点小说巨人的陨落的影子，几个一次世界大战的明星人物戏说一番、胡闹一通。一颗星给疑似主角躲过万颗子弹描边后被队友爆头的剧情，一颗星给俄罗斯半跪武侠的几只曲子，其他和港片路数差不多
【C+】拍的是个什么玩意…第一幕叙事简直是灾难级的糟糕，主次不分，想讲一堆东西又来不及塑造主角，完全不明所以在塞剧情，情绪完全是混乱的。第二幕节奏和角色才刚开始稍微有点起色时却又在第二幕结尾给了个意味不明的转折，马修沃恩作为优点的运镜大量减少，反而恶趣味到是塞满了全片。动作戏相比起前两部大幅减分，全片也就悬崖的部分拍的还不错。电影直到结束都没有明确给出一个这部电影会存在的原因，还不如好好把第3部拍完。
写剧本的人是睡着了吗？反正我是看着睡着了。。。
索然无味
对不起 你自以为明白世事
“你替我挡子弹，却不肯跳机？”
马修沃恩江郎才尽，亚伦泰勒约翰逊现在沦落到到处在大片里跑龙套了嘛……
导演/编剧是忽然经历了什么brain damage吗？？？
Ralph Fiennes这是缺钱了吧 影帝级别的演技用来脱裤子搞色诱 一点都不赏心悦目好吗 剧情又恶俗又蠢 还非要把真实人物拉进去 这种电影根本没必要拍出来 看在反派很帅的份上加一颗星
小牛津太让人心碎了💔😢"I didn't even get to say goodbye."
胜于富贵家，不知贫贱苦，年轻气盛空有满腔热血却白白送命，以为是主角结果是串场
戏谑历史的部分不予置评，至少战争部分还是不错的，也算英国人的拿手好戏了……其实真没必要挂kingsman的名……
挂着王牌特工的title，却卖弄着导演自己的政治恶趣味，不管是俄英德三兄弟还是列宁希特勒会师，没给这个故事带来一点趣味性，更别提伪男主一段贵公子体验战场生活的反转有多尴尬了，好看的部分还是几场动作戏，俄国舞蹈融入近身打斗那段还蛮飘逸，费因斯不太适合这角色，没有一丝喜感。
還真得蠻無趣的，和之前兩部差了幾條街。就知道有勇無謀的兒子會死，結果還死在自己人手上。美帝總統為了掩蓋自己醜聞而拒絕出兵，還真是很諷刺。某些打戲還可以，例如和俄國妖僧的dance fight。
