Audition 1999

Kiri, kiri, kiri, kiri...

Eihi Shiina is creepy as Asami Yamazaki. One of the most terrifying woman in a film I've ever seen!

Anyway, I didn't mind the slow pace of this film. It led me to a false sense of security, what could go wrong, what will happen, what has Takashi Miike in store for us. I was relaxing, drinking my morning milk until suddenly that freaking sack moved and almost spilled my milk. Such a great jump scare. And damn, what she was hiding in that sack! Worst pet ever!

Like almost nothing in horror films give me shivers anymore, not really, but damn those needles? Can't stand to watch that somehow! And yes, Asami, you are right,that wire did cut through meat and bone easily.

I agree with every review here that Audition is a film you need to watch without knowing anything beforehand. It is a amazing slowly paced film with two great performances and amazing direction by Miike!

Kiri, kiri, kiri, kiri!

Reasons to get off Tinder: The Movie

While I was watching I told myself; "alright, they're giving us a long, strong, intellectual romance buildup to prepare us for something equivalent, whatever it is..." then we get a Lynchian second act that felt even more cryptic. Well, turns out it's all meaningless buildup because the third act is more brawn than brain. An easy 20-30 minutes of the buildup could have been cut out. That being said, the two characters felt fleshed out as hell by the time we got to the third act. Even if the third act doesn't go with the rest I still loved it, so disturbing, bloody and graphic.

Great backstory for Asami it was all sorts of twisted, i'll remember her character for a while I think. Wasn't satisfied by how the issue was resolved in the end, felt like it ended too early when there was still potencial left for a few more thrilling scenes.

Good, but nothing crazy special. This is well executed genre filmmaking with decent characters and a fine, uncomplicated plot. Interestingly, the film can be read as a statement in favor of feminism or misogyny . I don’t think it’s meant to be either, to me this mostly reads as the kind of silly, apolitical pulp Tarantino would love. It dicks around a little too much (you could take 20 minutes out of this with a couple of simple tweaks) and I wish they hadn’t revealed part of the mystery during the first act, because it takes away some of the tension and makes the film more predictable. The stylish and intense pay-off you get in the third act makes up for a lot of its shortcomings, however, and the cinematography, acting, editing choices and music are all pretty good.

6.5/10

Managed to bore the hell out of me at some point but either than that it is a fair movie. Watch it and move on I guess.

Yawn, yawn, yawn ... snore ... fitful sleep ...

Take the horror & thriller tags from this movie because it is neither of those things.
I can't believe I sat through the entire thing, I was soooo bored with it, I would not recommend this to anyone.

I read that a woman fainted during an experiment at Liverpool University that used a scene from this movie, the torture scene at the end . I cannot see how a person would faint! Maybe I've watched too many gory horror movies? But....

This is very tame compared to Lucio Fulci's movies "The Beyond" or "A Cat In The Brain" and David Cronenberg's "The Fly" or "Videodrome" or "The Brood". It really must be very tame compared to a lot of movies.

I watched it because I read that a woman fainted during an experiment at Liverpool University that used a scene from this movie. This is all I want to say. It was worth watching. She seemed very genuinely happy and really cute sawing feets off .

Too little and quick terror for so much fame. Not so good as I imagined.
