Scott Pilgrim Takes Off “Let’s party!” – Lucas Lee Thirteen years have passed since the quirky “Scott Pilgrim vs the World” appeared in cinemas and (in principle) delighted a large number of viewers, and many still call it a small masterpiece. And then someone got the idea to make an animated version of Scott…
Scott Pilgrim vs the World Knives Chau: I’ve never even kissed a guy before. Scott Pilgrim: Hey… me neither. “Scott Pilgrim vs the World” is truly an unusual case in the film world, worthy of (pro)studying. Financially speaking, it turned out to be a miss. On a budget of 60-85 million dollars (hard to find…
Battle Royale “A student is not a mandarin” – Kinpachi Sakamoto There’s a probability one part of people aren’t familiar with the term battle royale. For many today this term is probably known because of video games like “PUBG,” “Fortnite” or “Apex Legends.” For some it’s probably known because of the eponymous cult Japanese…
Yu Yu Hakusho (Netflix) Hmmm… I must admit I didn’t know how to start reviewing the live action adaptation of the classic “Yu Yu Hakusho,” which we’ll call “Yu Yu Hakusho (Netflix)” or “YYH(N)” for review purposes. The anime version (like manga) has respect and a solid army of fans who are lovers of this…
Katanagatari There are some series that are truly specific in every respect, and because of that draw you into their world. One such series is “Katanagatari” (or in translation “Sword Story” or “Tale of Swords”). Meet an unusual duo wandering Japan somewhere during the Edo period (1603-1868). Togame is a self-proclaimed “Strategist,” one eccentric and…
John Wick 4 “Friendship means little when it’s convenient” – Shimazu (John Wick 4) Wow, we’ve reached “John Wick 4″… someone might think “now it can only recycle old material, can’t be better than previous parts.” It turned out it can. “John Wick 4” is the best part so far! 🙂 Brother…
John Wick 3 “Si vis pacem, para bellum” – “If you want peace, prepare for war” (Latin saying… also Winston’s comment in the film “John Wick 3”) Ugh, brother John Wick really doesn’t have it easy. He killed Santino D’Antonio (Camorra), who after his sister’s death became a member of the “High Table” Council,…
John Wick 2 “You stabbed the devil in the back and forced him back into the life that he had just left. You incinerated the priest’s temple. Burned it to the ground. Now he’s free of the marker, what do you think he’ll do? He had a glimpse of the other side and he embraced…
John Wick Vigo Tarasov: I hear you struck my son. Aurelio: Yes, sir, I did. Vigo Tarasov: And may I ask why? Aurelio: Yeah, well, because he stole John Wick’s car, sir, and, uh, killed his dog. Vigo Tarasov: [silence] Oh… (From the film “John Wick”) A quiet and silent man had the crazy…
Rurouni Kenshin Sanosuke Sagara (Zanza): [about Kenshin] “Give him a sword and he’s unstoppable, but give him a bail of rice and he’s just an ordinary guy.” I adore “Rurouni Kenshin” (Americanized as “Samurai X”). For me this is not only one of the best anime titles, but also a series in general. Of course,…
