올드보이 (2003)

English title: Oldboy

♥♥♥

Quite confusing.

Real live octopus, apparently. :( Both a stupidly macho-like action, it seemed to serve little purpose and finally and most importantly I imagine it's  more painful to be killed by eating than have your head severed off with a knife in less than a second.

He's right, an unforgivable sin. He shouldn't be angry because she turned her down. Not a legitimate reason. There is no legitimate reason. And don't encourage not respecting a no! Even if you don't care, others do!

The main theme reminds me of the Dalish Elves Encampment theme from Dragon Age, maybe due to the mood and the prominent oboe or clarinet(?).

大红灯笼高高挂 (1991)

English title: Raise the Red Lantern

♥♥♥♥

Beautiful audiovisually! Creepy story/scenario!

Maybe an example of internalized misogyni, women mostly competing with other women in a patriarchal society? Down with the patriarch and his goons!

A pro straight-edge message.

座頭市 (2003)

English title: Zatoichi

♥♥♥♥

Nice gang! Both a non-ablebodied person and a transvestite! Bad acting and SFX, though.
Pretty good, but closer to 3 than 5. I've heard that "constructor" track somewhere before?!

The Deer Hunter (1978)

Incredibly tough film, but also a great one. Strange that I haven't seen any of Michael Cimino's other films, actually.

Saw it a really long time ago, so a bit difficult to remember the impression. I do remember a certain insta-kill scene, though.

Long time ago since I saw it, so a bit difficult to recall, but I expect the silliness would not entertain me very much if I saw it today, unlike when I was a teen.
