Just saw this.
I'm a Miike fan, having seen quite a few of his works (though he has done about 80 movies in 10 years and I've only seen about 15, so yeah..), and I gotta say that the concept for his movies is always amazing, but I can't always connect with his movies.. Audition sucks.. One Missed Call REALLY sucks.. and Ichi the Killer -- despite having my favorite Japanese actor in it, one of my favorite director's cum in it, and having an amazing soundtrack -- isn't as good as everyone says it is.. I love Visitor Q and IZO is in my top 10 favorite films of all time, though, so I still check out any Miike I can get my hands on..
Well, Happiness is apparently out of print in these parts, so I paid my friend $2 (he has an actual copy -- ?!?!?!) to burn me this... and.. WOW.
ZOMBIES.
COMEDY.
DANCING.
SINGING.
CLAYMATION (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!).
ACTION.
ROMANCE.
DRAMA.
WOW.
It was amazing! I couldn't believe the songs... and the claymation was unbelievable.. it was actually a really touching family film... anyone else seen this? Fucking unbelievable. Highly reccomended.
