Sonatine

What the fuck. Did i just watch a yakuza slice of life movie?

Yes

If you enjoyed that, go watch 'The Triad Zone' for a Triad Slice of Life dark comedy

To this day I've only seen this on a Miramax screener that fades in and out of black and white and has text scrolling across the screen.

Now go watch Hana-bi

Yep, do this OP.

comfy :)

Kikojiro is the comfiest though.

Can you link the imdb?

what the fuck is wrong with you?

Is it really so difficult to post a link? I'm not a weaboo, so I'm not used to searching Asian titles and then discerning which fucking one you mean. I've found it by now, but it's not listed as Hana-bi. Could've just said "Fireworks".

how difficult is it to type hanabi imdb and choose the first one you fucking kike. hell of a lot quicker than waiting for some cunt to go and link it you dipshit

that was really hard mate

>“not being afraid of killing people means not being afraid of killing yourself, right?”
Despite this line that scene is still comfy. This movie is amazing

>Sonatine
>Brother
>Hana-bi
>Kikujiro
>Zatoichi

>no Kids Return
>no Boiling Point

>great still camera work
>interesting "static" action
>moments of genuine happiness/fun in somewhat sad films
>endlessly humanized characters

Sonataine and Hana-Bi are incredible films

His shit is, as much as I hate the term, comfy. It has themes of Yakuza life but it's never sinister.

I'm endlessly fascinated by how they're more or less the same movie but so different at the same time

Haven't watched Kids Return
Boiling Point is excellent, I don't know how I forgot it

That's really nice quality user. Is it a rip from last year's blu ray?
I got excited an pre-ordered one only to find out it was region locked.
Sadly I am a tard and I dont torrent.
I'd love to have Fireworks and Sonatine, they're two of my favorite films

the ending of Sonatine with the absolutely based Hisaishi score and Kitano killing everybody is absolutely the definition of kino

why dont you torrent dipshit

The most confusing part about those two movies is that I can't watch them with someone else.

Hana-Bi is probably what I would call my "favorite" movie, but I stil can't stand the thought of watching it with someone. Is it autism?

I don't know what I'm doing when it comes to anything torrent related

Eh idk. Some stuff I like showing to/watching with others but then other stuff I don't bother with.
I know it'll be too "different" for them.

>I don't know what I'm doing when it comes to anything torrent related

What the fuck is wrong with you, torrenting is almost as basic as fucking browsing. Fucking filling out captchas to post is harder than torrenting.

Are you a fucking phone poster with no computer or something?

2cute

Yes

Netflix's subtitles translated that to "indecent exposure is fun!"

>watching shit on jewflix

I saw this, was anything else changed?

It's just the translation between the old dvd and the new one, stuff like that is always being updated

Kitano's movies feel very narcissistic to be honest, he's always the toughest man on the block wrecking his opposition freely no matter their number. And that doesn't jive well with the way he shoots action (or rather doesn't shoot). I still like his movies and find them unique, but that particular thing doesn't sit well with me.

I'm not really sure how you can see that, at the very least because his characters always seem to get killed in the end. But overall, his yakuza characters are deeply unhappy and it becomes more prominent in his films as they go on throughout the 90s. Sonatine in particular is viciously critical about the reality of yakuza life, how shallow and fleeting it all is. On the exterior they're tough guys, but internally his characters are all broken men

I didn't understand anything in this movie. The people and their actions were incomprehensible.

Welcome to Asian cinema. You get used to it after a while.
Did I guess correctly, are you new to it? Because that's how I felt when I saw my first few Asian films that weren't Jackie Chan.

confirmed for good opinion!

I usually try to not offend anyone, not in real life and not on the net. But you deserve plenty insults for being indolent and whining.

I haven't seen the film but that webm really cracks me up.

Yeah...
