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
好不喜欢里面的妈妈 完全不觉得这是中国式妈妈 或者中国式亲子关系。 感觉更像是一种刻板印象
中国式青春故事，作为中国人不能在电影院看到实在是太遗憾了
本片可爱“炸”了，字面意思。特别喜欢演唱会那场戏，一波又一波，高潮推上去了，那首“传统与现代结合的MIX”也有特色，很哏儿！（PS：本想上IMDB看看本片的trivia的，遗憾发现站子被墙了，怪不得豆娘前阵子突然和IMDB解绑，大概是被迫割席吧，唉……）
释放内心的野兽容易，但驯服它，却并不容易。
其实你跟你姥你姨儿搁堆儿加一块都比不上你妈万分之一熊，你那点少女怀春小叛逆不过是在洪荒熊力面前洒洒水啦🥲
四🌟吧但是太共鸣了我爆哭，东雅妈宝女的欲望迸发和自我觉醒。发现短评很多人似乎没有留意年代是2002，正好不就是我们这代人吗😭而被压抑得最厉害、欲望也最膨胀的就是我们上一代这群六十年代生人啊。
世间一切都不应被贴上标签。
若說一國一地之發展，需要爛東西來過渡，一切都只是過程，那麼每部片都可以給一般或好評得了。問題是這麼噁爛的小清新、文青味，你們受得了嗎？還寫詩呢乖乖。至於情感與性的那些也只是一種自以為然的想法，腦子成天幻想又自傲的男女才可能搞出這種假東西。固然說毛病再多的陸片也比台片好八百倍，但我拿陸片跟台灣比幹嘛呢？你們看過德國人阿福在b站上傳的視頻嗎？阿福也會講上海話，老婆是上海人。看看阿福2020拍的這支吧：“上海退休老人，一天的生活是什么样？”看阿福拍的各種主題無論是上海北京南京或安徽宿州，都比看這種電影有價值得多。
在北美文化语境中处理东亚文化，孝文化包含着“服从，顺从，不忤逆”的成分，它绝不是一个平等文化，因此随着主角的成长，它势必与主角的个体性爆发激烈的冲突，主角美美也非得容许这种暴怒（反抗、反叛）情绪与自己永远相伴，才能摆脱一味顺从的孝文化的控制，获得真正的成长。
内心的小野兽是藏不住的～活出自我真的太棒了！
太萌了，“神话”落地在不会砸碎一切传统、毫无传承，也即非共的自由国家中，离心灵鸡汤就拉开了适当的距离，可以说让“接纳你自己”这句心理学构造的被用来广泛指导生活的存粹屁话，有了蛮多坚实的现实范例，当然了，片子没有进行到不爱属己之物还能爱什么，甚至更过分的自己怎么会不美的双重困境里，可能还是因为短小精悍，故事结束的地方恰到好处，而这点就真的是太棒了，谢谢侬！
《心灵奇旅》的成本是1.5亿，《智能大反攻》成本不到1亿，现在花1.75亿美元就做出个这？
东亚女性好像都是被这样训导着长大的，要乖巧孝顺，要优秀懂事。红熊猫像是每一个女孩子内心那个不那么符合这一切标准的自己，即使明明是自己的一部分，但因为不完美，仍然被家人、社会教导着应该把她封印起来。外婆是这么做的，也是这样教导妈妈的。妈妈是这么做的，也是这么期望美林的。但好在美林终于可以和拥抱那个不完美不合规矩的自己了，就连妈妈也可以和自己和解了，真好。女孩子们就是要放下条条框框，拥抱自己啊。
「I'm 13! Deal with it!」

不愧同是出自Domee Shi手，父母讓孩子尷尬到不斷錘牆，角色同樣的躊躇，內心絞著手拍都不敢跟家人講一句真心話，如同困局、反覆、詛咒一樣的家庭以一句I’ll proud of u來化解溝通困境未免太過輕而易舉地一筆帶過了啦，好淺顯的子供向世紀大和解
剧情俗套、情感的转变生硬。控制欲强的妈妈突然顺从女儿的叛逆（从妈妈的视角看，女儿成绩下滑，半夜溜出去轰趴，还有可能有生命危险，一下子就放手了？？），作为闺蜜组仇敌的泰勒上一次出场还在侮辱女主和她的家庭，仅仅因为喜欢同一个乐队就嗨在一起了excuse me？
太好看啦。Turning red暗喻了青春期的初潮，是少男少女自我意识的觉醒，“一切都要开始变化”；变化之后的小熊猫既代表着与那个不那么美好的自我，也代表着挣脱规训的反叛。Meimei选择与小熊猫共处而不是像老一辈女性那样压抑那个生气、反叛的自己，也是自我探索、挣脱传统习俗礼教束缚的一大步。最后妈妈说“你走得越远我越骄傲”，泪目。
这句台词出来我真的一个爆哭，或许不知中国女孩，这部电影描绘的是每一个普通的女孩在青春期的成长的烦恼。说是最爱的是父母，其实心里把朋友放第一位；十几岁是单纯又傻傻的朋友们；还有和母亲的对抗，种种都让我想到我那段青春期的日子。
