This 1992 Japanese film tells the story of a scientist who sets out to create the new "super Adam and Eve", humans who cannot be controlled by their emotions. Of course, the end result it not exactly what the good doctor expects.
comments from imdb:
This modern tale of an attempt to build a creature is one of the best "horror" films ever made, even if its not a horror film but something else entirely. Certainly its on my short list of all time great films.
This film was introduced to me by someone who told me "I have this film that probably one of the best films you'll ever see. It will move you and touch you and make you think, but if I told you what it is and told you how its done you will think its the stupidest thing on the face of it and you won't watch it." Intrigued I asked what did he mean, and he said, "Well its a Frankenstein story, with a very goofy sort of edge, but which uses it to its advantage." My ears perked up, and I being a trusting soul took the tape and watched it. I was blown away.
The plot concerns a mad scientist attempting to make a new Adam and Eve in the wake of a suicidal plague that is ravaging the world. Locked up in his lab his experiments go differently then either he or we expect. Some of it is silly (The bolts in the neck, the wrestling moves...), all of it is touching and thought provoking.
I can not recommend this movie enough. If you are willing to take the film on its terms and allow it to tell its story then I urge you to seek this film out and see it. This is an undiscovered gem that will stay with you forever.
15 out of 10 and then some. 10/10
Also known as "The Last Frankenstein", this is an extraordinary, impeccably produced horror film. Director Takeshi Kawamura uses Mary Shelley's novel as a mere launching pad for an exploration of subjects as diverse and fascinating as the nature of love, desire, suicide, mass hypnosis, sex, alienation and jealousy.
And though the film is dense with subtext, it is also stunningly photographed and rich in atmosphere and detail. The performances are all amazing and Kawamura's sensitive handling of the strange, delicate relationships between the characters results in an emotionally charged, angst-ridden tragedy.
The scenes of the confused, troubled monster hurtling through a fog-shrouded forest at night are memorable and striking, as is a brilliant home movie-style montage of the film's more curious characters enjoying a precious afternoon at the beach. Kawamura creates resonating visual poetry of horror and sadness barely sighted since Todd Browning's classic "Freaks".
Intelligent, emotional, tragic and real, this is an absolute gem. 9/10
这个片子几乎可以看作是近半个多世纪以来各种形式瑞沃鲁申的缩影（不知道对后来的东欧巨变是不是产生了某些影响），一个看起来无比正义的左倾动机随着对峙时间的延长渐渐变得失控，在这种情况下，你根本无法分辨到底双方谁是更「正义」的，经过了漫长且无意义的争论后，也就演变成了这种葫芦僧乱判葫芦案的情况。全片最让我印象深刻的一句话是「他们七个那天该不会其实是带领着一万名便衣警察在抗议吧？」多荒诞，多讽刺，然而大部分情况下事实就是这样的。
说到底是政治审判，改变了什么吗，好像也没有。
讲真，小兰是不是被PUA了，新一这种动不动就玩消失的臭男人怎么这么容易原谅的！墨迹死啦！本柯南死忠粉从小学追到现在都特么奔三了他俩居然才亲上，救命好吧！而且这集真的推理是什么鬼？拿注射器喷到天花板上这种鬼点子我用脚趾头都想不出来……而且不会溅到自己身上吗？注射器又跑哪去了！fine！我知道不重要……anyway，即便如此，已经比近几年的剧场版都要好看了……
导演尽量发挥自己的台词优势，剪切凌厉，但只是浮于表面，看得人昏昏欲睡
在这个时间点很难有什么东西让我对美国的未来重拾信心, 这部电影做到了.
7.5/10 把白左打在每一幀裡的片。節奏太舒服了，但是索金還是太踏實，少一絲靈韻，稍微照本宣科了一點；畢竟這個演員班底是可以飄一飄玩票大的。
一场注定失败的审判，一次实力悬殊的较量，越是在艰难压迫中越能得见人心、窥探社会的真相，无论50年前还是后，冲动或者成熟，不变的是那5000多个值得致敬的名字……本剧的成功得益于真实事件改编，更得益于大量精彩的细节，如通过不同视角场景叙述事件经过，酒吧落地绿玻璃窗场景转换虽显刻意，却意味深长，结尾海登的自辩词陈词出人意料，又在情理之中。激励人心又感动落泪的优秀作品。

四星半，种族、女权、反战一锅端，很有奥斯卡相，如果不是结尾的“好莱坞式”结局，可以给五星。萨沙拜伦科恩不搞笑起来也挺有魅力的。
哇好棒的电影，这么繁杂的故事都被讲得明明白白~这个故事告诉我们司法系统、警察什么的如果没有完善体制，难道要指着执行人的道德约束吗？那怎么可能靠得住。这个可怕的一个人（没有基本人格人品的人）居然能当上大法官，成功让司法和行政搅和在一起，成为权力游戏的走狗，这难道不违宪？你们引以为傲的三权分立又在哪里呢。
对话没有含金量，较量不精彩，制作水平中下，剧情拖沓。
Abbie Hoffman
索金的剧本就不吹了，但他对于自己的剧本依然无法进行取舍，整部电影仍然是被剧本支配带着跑，铺陈满密集对白和庞大信息量的法庭辩论、会议演讲、示威游行以及纪录片段，没有给予片刻让观众停下来思考喘息，你知道它所批判所要表达的，但影片结束后并不会被感染不会被煽动不会去反思，这是电影技法和视听的失败不是剧本的。在看的时候一直会想要是大卫芬奇、贝尼特米勒或者原定的绿草或老斯来处理这个剧本会是什么样？
用电影渲染的形式代替纪录片还原历史事件的确是十分叫座也讨巧的手艺，最后一幕念名单的时候倒不见法警上前制止。一场审判杂糅着社会底层的自我正视、白人阶层的种族歧视，美国宪法或者说各国披着法律外衣的zzhi此刻又忘记了建立联邦zf的初衷
艾伦索金的台词像子弹，字字句句冲击到脑门。政局的荒唐、司法的不公正、流血冲突到底为了什么……一遍遍质问。当最终海登念出4572个牺牲在越战泥坑的士兵名字时，答案揭晓：就是为了最初的正义，反对战争，一切政治手段不该到良心面前扯浑水。
啊啊啊啊啊我居然现在才看！！！真的是各方面都令人发指的完美的一集（我心目中）......赶快给我上小破站啊好多地方都是笑到打鸣必须要搭配弹幕才能彻底爽到www这个案件也好戳我，暗号友情告白，啊，可恶的结局。就我这种曾经很敏感的人深有体会，对待心思敏感脆弱的朋友，还是直言坦诚的表达（或者给点小提示让对方知道有惊喜）会让人比较安心。可惜！......黑鸡你赶紧给我表白啊喂！光想不练算什么英雄好汉！然后真的好喜欢园子真纯和小兰吃东西唠嗑的日常_(:3」∠)_最近宅家往回追了几百集日常番的我已经深深地习惯有柯南的日子了。
酒吧外是20世纪60年代，酒吧内是20世纪50年代，时代正在那些不在意的人眼皮底下发生，你可以选择无视，但全世界都在看
本来就是场荒唐的审判，大篇幅的法庭戏一点也不枯燥，金句频出，很燃。对萨莎·拜伦·科恩刮目相看，Abbie这个人物和他很像，看似玩世不恭，却活得很清醒。
尤其当他最后扣上扣子起身致敬
