Cutie Honey (2004) Review

"Cutie Honey" International Poster

“Cutie Honey” International Poster

Director: Hideaki Anno
Cast: Eriko Sato, Mikako Ichikawa, Jun Murakami, Mitsuhiro Oikawa, Hairi Katagiri, Shie Kohinata, Mayumi Shintani, Eisuke Sasai, Toru Tezuka, Ryō Kase, Ryo Iwamatsu, Suzuki Matsuo, Kyusaku Shimada, Ryuhei Matsuda
Running Time: 93 min.

By Ningen

This live-action film is based an anime series about a cyborg girl who changes outfits and weapons to fight crime, the appeal being that she briefly becomes naked when she changes. For some reason, it’s one of the few Go Nagai anime to actually have a fanbase here, possibly because it doesn’t feature as many hairy guys with thick sideburns beating the crap out of monsters and blowing up giant robots as is typical in his work.

In other words, Cutie Honey’s like Wonder Woman meets Benny Hill. So of course the producers of the film did what anyone would do, and hired a director who’s best known for a giant robot series where the pilots bitch and moan and stare into space more than actually fight. And of course he royally screwed it up by focusing on her personal life. Honey’s secret identity as an office lady is given more screen-time than the action. She’s shown trying to adapt as a robot in a human world, which is great if you were expecting A.I., but not if you were expecting Ultraviolet.

Battles are recycled from every Power Rangers episode ever made, but without the actual attention to detail in the special effects, which means you get costumes which look like they were patched together at the last minute, and CG which looks like it was produced by the Sci-Fi Channel. It’s that low-budget!

And what’s worse is that the hack (I mean director) has the audacity to make the bad guys justify the legitimacy of his quest for world domination in a desperate attempt to make them appear “three-dimensional”-disregarding the fact their cardboard outfits are barely two-dimensional. If Godard sold out, I’d imagine he’d be making something like Cutie Honey. Still, if you don’t take it too seriously, it’s enjoyable, albeit too smart for its own good and too stupid to know what the audience wants.

Ningen’s Rating: 6/10 for camp value, 4/10 because of all the pretentious bs, 5.5 total

Blu-Ray and DVD Releases for 1/3/12

One-Armed Blade DVD Collection (First Look Pictures)

One-Armed Blade DVD Collection (First Look Pictures)

Welcome to the first week of the new year! As far as blu-ray and DVD retail goes, 2012 is off to a slow start, with just one Asian film on the slate for this week.

But hey, Warner Home Video is going crazy with a selection of 3-disc blu-ray sets, which combine three loosely related films in one package for only $22.49. Not too shabby. Just forgive me for repeating the price ad infinitum.

Without further adieu, here are your Asian and genre movie blu-ray and DVD releases for the week of 1/3/12:

ASIAN CINEMA

One Armed Blade Collection (DVD) – this two film set features 1976’s “One-Armed Swordsman” and “One Armed Swordsman Against Nine Killers,” which are unofficial entries in the One Armed Swordsman series but still star Jimmy Wang Yu and David Chiang. Mighty Peking Man says to view these two films as the “Never Say Never Again” of the OAS series

FOREIGN CINEMA

I’m Glad My Mother is Alive (DVD) – a 2011 French language film, based on the startling true story of a young man who becomes obsessed with tracking down his long lost birth mother

MAINSTREAM

Contagion (blu-ray/DVD) – Steven Soderbergh’s 2011 tale of a deadly virus makes its way to home formats

Puncture (blu-ray/DVD) – this 2011 legal thriller allows Captain America himself, Chris Evans, to stretch his acting chops as a drug-addicted lawyer

The Guard (blu-ray/DVD) – Brendan Gleeson and Don Cheadle try to make nice in this 2011 would-be buddy comedy

HORROR

Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark (blu-ray/DVD) – this 2011 chiller stars Guy Pearce and Katie Holmes, and was produced by “Pan’s Labyrinth” and “Blade 2” director Guillermo Del Toro

Shark Night (blu-ray/DVD) – looks like they dropped the “3D” from the title for the home format release, but this is still the same 2011 film where Bill Paxton’s daughter is terrorized by sharks in a lake bed. Unfortunately, this doesn’t appear to be an unrated cut

Red: Werewolf Hunter (DVD) – internet icon Felicia Day stars in this action-leaning 2010 update on the Red Riding Hood tale

Don’t Let Him In (DVD) – a 2011 indie horror film about a hitchhiker who might be something more than he seems

Attack of the Vegan Zombies (DVD) – this 2009 zombie spoof has surprisingly high ratings on Amazon

TRIPLE FEATURES

The Searchers/The Wild Bunch/How the West Was Won (Triple Feature) (blu-ray) – John Wayne and Sam Peckinpah are together at last, or at least they are in this set that combines three classic Westerns in one blu-ray package for only $22.49

Above the Law/Under Siege/Under Siege 2: Dark Territory (Triple Feature) (blu-ray) – arguably Steven Seagal’s most popular and endearing films – well, except for Dark Territory – are now collected in one blu-ray package for $22.49

Twister/Poseidon/The Perfect Storm (Triple Feature) (blu-ray) – get a triple dose of big screen disaster with these three movies where the elements are out to get you. They’re going for $22.49

Alexander Revisited/Troy/300 (Triple Feature) (blu-ray) – get your toga ready for this triple pack of swords-and-sandals epic, which goes for $22.49 on Amazon

Point of No Return/Domino/The Long Kiss Goodnight (Triple Feature) (blu-ray) – think women are the fairer gender? You might not after watching these three films featuring deadly lady assassins and bounty hunters. Again, this set retails for $22.49

V for Vendetta/Watchmen/Constantine (Triple Feature) (blu-ray) – your favorite Alan Moore graphic novel tales come to life in this triple film set. But if you’re one of those fans who think Hollywood butchered Moore’s work, I suppose you won’t want to pay $22.49 for them

Se7en/Copycat/Taking Lives (Triple Feature) (blu-ray) – a blu-ray triple feature for those who just love their dark and rainy serial killer movies, going for $22.49

Friday the 13th/A Nightmare on Elm Street/Freddy vs. Jason (Triple Feature) (blu-ray) – see where Jason and Freddy began, then watch them duke it out in this blu-ray set retailing for $22.49

Red Planet/2010/Contact (Triple Feature) (blu-ray) – this has to be the oddest match-up. They may all be sci-fi but I find it a stretch to combine the sequel to “2001: A Space Odyssey” with one of Val Kilmer’s last starring vehicles. Anyhow, no surprise it goes for $22.49

Friday/Menace II Society/Set It Off (Triple Feature) (blu-ray) – a triple pack of urban comedy and drama, for only $22.49

Love Exposure (2008) Review

"Love Exposure" International Theatrical Poster

“Love Exposure” International Theatrical Poster

Director: Sion Sono
Writer: Sion Sono
Producer: Haruo Umekawa
Cast: Takahiro Nishijima, Hikari Mitsushima, Sakura Ando, Makiko Watanabe, Atsuro Watabe
Running Time: 237 min.

By HKFanatic

This is a film whose reputation precedes it – that of being one long-ass movie. “Love Exposure” is “Suicide Club” director Sion Sono’s four hour ode to love, Christianity, upskirt photography, and awkward erections. To be honest, I put “Love Exposure” into my DVD player rather late at night and didn’t expect to make it through the entire picture in one sitting. Even as a fan of Sono’s work, I had to figure that viewers were exaggerating when that said “Love Exposure’s” four hours flew right by. And yet my attention remained riveted to the screen for the movie’s entire runtime, which felt about half as long as it really was. This is simply the most immersive cinematic experience I’ve had since Gasper Noe’s “Enter the Void.” “Love Exposure” is very Japanese, potentially offensive, but also highly recommended to anyone with an interest in Asian film.

Much like “Enter the Void,” “Love Exposure” is one of the most novel-like films I’ve ever seen. The story unfolds in chapters and each one is typically narrated from a different character’s point-of-view. The title of the movie doesn’t actually flash across the screen until about 40 minutes into the picture. This opening act is fairly humorous at times, as our main protagonist Yu (Takahiro Nishijima) learns the ways of stealth upskirt photography, but it’s not until his love interest Yoko (Hikari Mitsushima) is introduced that the story really gets interesting. You see, Yu meets and falls in love with Yoko while he’s in drag – so Yoko develops a crush on the woman that she thinks Yu is. Things get even more complicated when an evil cult called the Zero Church tries to turn Yoko against Yu. Believe it or not, “Love Exposure” is based partially on the true account of Sion Sono’s friend, a worker in the pornography industry who was able to rescue a girl from a cult. Among other things, the film offers the sincere message that, hey, it’s okay to be a pervert. As Yu says, “Being a pervert is just another way to live one’s life.”

The story takes many twists and turns that are impossible to predict, and it’s to Sion Sono’s credit that the film rarely lags or feels slow-paced. With such a bizarre concept, “Love Exposure” is the kind of film that could have fallen flat on its face if the actors weren’t committed to the material. But the cast, in particular our two leads Takahiro Nishijima and Hikari Mitsushima, really sell you on the reality of the film. These kids believe in the material. And surely their expressive faces were meant for the cinema: Hikari Mutsushima is such a cutie, it’s not hard to believe that Takahiro’s character would become infatuated with her.

Surprisingly, Sion Sono managed to shoot “Love Exposure” is just a month’s time. The original cut was reportedly six hours before producers told Sono to edit it down. It’s a testament to this film’s quality that I would actually be interested in viewing an even longer cut. The budget was obviously low so don’t expect superb production values; “Love Exposure” isn’t much to look at but Sono made the most of what he had. The no-frills cinematography ends up putting the emphasis on the actors, which works in “Love Exposure’s” favor. Someday, though, someone is going to give Sono a halfway decent budget and the result will most likely blow our minds.

“Love Exposure” is undoubtedly one of the best Japanese films I’ve seen. The constant shots of Japanese’s girls panties, the occasional arterial spray and genital mutilation, and the brief detour into the sex industry mean that the film’s audience might be limited. But despite the somewhat perverted context for everything, “Love Exposure” comes across as a genuinely sweet and innocent-minded film. At its heart, “Love Exposure” is a simple teenage love story. Sion Sono has crafted an irreverent take on the Christian faith that by the end actually manages to confirm all of its tenets. It reminds us of the power of first love, and how deep down we want to believe that love triumphs over all, no matter what tragic turns life throws at us. To receive love, you must give love…and sometimes that means exposing yourself in the most vulnerable of ways. I think in this film, Yu would say it’s worth the risk.

HKFanatic’s Rating: 10/10

Champions | aka Duo Biao (2008) Review

"Champions" Chinese Theatrical Poster

“Champions” Chinese Theatrical Poster

Director: Tsui Siu Ming
Writer: Tsui Siu Ming
Producer: Tom Cheung, Amy Lee, Tsui Siu Ming
Cast: Dicky Cheung Wai Kin, Tse Miu, Debbie Ng Tin Yu, Priscilla Wong Cuiru, Chui Heung Tung, Wai Chi Ho, Yu Rong Guang, Maria Cordero, Lee Fai
Running Time: 117 min.

By HKFanatic

If you thought “Ip Man 2” and “Jet Li’s Fearless” went a wee bit overboard with their jingoistic ‘ra ra China’ patriotism, then 2008’s “Champions” might just make your eyes roll permanently into the back of your head.

This film, made to commemorate China’s hosting of the ’08 Olympics, takes a look back at the first year the country took part in the celebrated games (1936). The result is an inspirational martial arts/sports drama that takes its national pride to such extremes that it will mostly likely prove comical to all but the most devoted. This is “Karate Kid” repurposed into “Kung Fu Nation”; a movie about how China can do anything it sets its mind to if its countrymen just put their selfishness aside and do what’s best for the collective. Don’t be surprised if phrases like “Let’s take China to the Olympics!” become an in-joke between you and anyone who watches the movie with you.

The thing about Chinese/Hong Kong cinema, though, is that they’ve always had the best martial arts sequences in the world. And “Champions” does not disappoint in that regard. During the first twenty minutes, I honestly thought the movie was going to be something like a Chinese version of “Newsies,” especially after the cast gave an extended acrobatic performance through the city streets. But it doesn’t take long for the film to ramp up the pace and give way to several lengthy fight sequences. Sure, there are a few blatant and distracting instances of wire-fu but, overall, the fight scenes are extremely well-choreographed and hard-hitting. If you can put up with the syrupy melodrama and the blatant propaganda of the rest of the movie, martial arts buffs should find “Champions” entertaining enough. Hey, if Michael Bay can turn the “Transformers” movies into thinly-veiled military recruitment ads, can’t China have their “Champions”?

The main character in the film is played by comedian Dicky Cheung, who reportedly spent months training in martial arts for the role. His work seems to have paid off as he looks believable in a fight but I wish I could say the same about his acting. LoveHKFilm describes Cheung as a “wannabe Steven Chow,” which seems dead-on to me. His self-satisfied and overly loud character not only feels incongruous with the period setting of the film, but he’s just plain grating to watch. Note to filmmakers: it doesn’t help your movie when the protagonist is an annoying showboat who never takes off his golf visor. I can’t say I ever really felt sympathy for the guy, despite the screenplay’s many ups and downs. Cheung may be enormously popular in China but as far as I’m concerned he can’t carry a movie.

Fortunately, the film is rounded out by able supporting players. You may not recognize Xie Miao but chances are you’ve seen him before: as a child, he played Jet Li’s son in not one but two movies, “My Father is a Hero” and “Legend of the Red Dragon.” Over a decade has passed since those those films but Xie Miao doesn’t appear to have missed a beat; he’s still a talented martial artist and a strong screen presence. His more straight-faced, level-headed character is a welcome antidote to Dicky Cheung’s over-acting. Also look for martial arts legend Yu Rong-Guang (“Iron Monkey,” “Shanghai Noon”), a graduate of the famous Peking Opera School, and Xu Xiang-Dong (“14 Blades,” “White Vengeance”), who manages to steal every seen he’s in as a bloodthirsty practitioner of the Eagle Claw kung fu style.

“Champions” is easy to poke fun at if you’re viewing the film as an outsider, someone not overcome with Chinese pride. But the truth is that it’s not a bad little kung fu flick and it’s great to see Xie Miao tearing up the screen once again. I find “Champions” easy to recommend to action fans with a high tolerance for syrupy melodrama. The fight scenes don’t disappoint and the music is appropriately melodic and over-the-top, complimenting the movie in a Disney-esque fashion. In fact, that’s what the whole movie rather feels like: the Chinese equivalent of a motivational Disney movie, just with a whole lot of ass-kicking.

HKFanatic’s Rating: 6.5/10

Blu-Ray and DVD Releases for 12/27/11

City Under Siege Blu-ray & DVD (Funimation)

City Under Siege Blu-ray & DVD (Funimation)

The last week of 2011 is indeed a slow one. But if you’re a horror buff, take heart as there seems to be a surplus of scary flicks this Tuesday. Here are your Asian and genre movie blu-ray and DVD releases for the week of 12/27/11:

ASIAN CINEMA

City Under Siege (Blu-ray + DVD combo) – director Benny Chan’s special effects-laden 2010 film stars Aaron Kwok, Shu Qi, and a whole lot of angry mutants

Brighton Rock (DVD) – Sam Riley and Helen Mirren headline this 2011 British film that adapts Graham Greene’s famous novel to the big screen

MAINSTREAM

In the Name of the King 2: Two Worlds (blu-ray/DVD) – this time around, Dolph Lundgren headlines Uwe Boll’s latest questionable direct-to-video endeavor with this 2011 fantasy film

Inside Out (blu-ray/DVD) – this 2011 direct-to-video effort stars Triple H as a reformed convict alongside Michael Rapaport, Parker Posey, and Bruce Dern. Gee, one of those names is not like the other

CULT

HORROR

Final Destination 5 (blu-ray/DVD) – this 2011 entry in the venerable horror franchise arguably got the series back on track. If you enjoy clueless young people dying in the most gruesome and elaborate ways, you can’t go wrong here

Apollo 18 (blu-ray/DVD) – another one of those “found footage” horror films, this 2011 flick has the added novelty of being set in space, where no one can hear you…well, you know

Hostel: Part III (blu-ray/DVD) – since “Cabin Fever” got a direct-to-video sequel, I suppose “Hostel” deserves one too, although this 2011 entry is from director Steven Spiegel, a genuinely respected name in horror

Chop (DVD) – billed as a “horror comedy,” this 2010 film is being released by Bloody Disgusting Selects, who are usually right on with their releases. They’re the ones who put out “Cold Fish” over here, after all

Tunnel Movie (DVD) – this 2011 Aussie movie appears to be another “found footage”-style film, this time set in the subway tunnels of Sydney, where a strange creature lurks
