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
医学生看到眼泪笑出来，一点常识都没有。这也拍不好那也拍不好，真的是看了个寂寞。关于你妈子宫肌瘤的一切，我一点都不想知道！！！
看了一会儿就想起来韩版的那部了，怎么说呢，想悲情，却感动不了。集母亲、姐姐、老婆、儿媳于一身，全都在为了你好。但如果没有那么好，自己是不是就不一样了？虽然如此，还是想起了我妈，也是这样的人，愿她安康。
4.每个人的青春都很美好，中老年就剩一地鸡毛吗
而是因为这样一个女性所承担的生活重担而哭。
套路化类型电影，看了开头我立马帮助我妈脑补了全部接下去会出现的剧情，事实证明预测成功率百分百。这是一部没有惊喜的电影，但是子欲养而亲不待的主题永远可以靠情感讨巧取胜！
催泪炸弹，用非常多的真实的细节填满了全部影片，情感密度很高很浓，几乎没人能抵住2h的催泪，一定都能找到自己感动的点。但硬币总有正反，为了维持这样高浓度的情感冲击，人物基本是脸谱化和刻板印象的，我几乎是只在火锅那里见到了出离意料之外的人物性格。所有提到的点都闭环了，但闭环过多，后期很容易疲乏，换人话就是哭累了。。。。

无论是题材还是表演，我都认为值得五分。普通人生活的酸甜苦辣，最难得就是安之若素。谁的生活都有些让人尴尬的一地鸡毛，但在得知自己不久于人世时还能够有条不紊地做好各种安排，让自己放心不下的人和事都能走上正轨，做好各种交待，然后平和面对该发生的一切。活着的时候努力爱着，死后便不留什么遗憾。总有人会记得你，在这个世界上流传。
推荐带妈妈去看。
我这里最不及格的反而是表演，所有的人物形象都如此刻板，经不起审视与推敲。徐帆和许亚军的夫妻关系从第一场戏就浮在表面，直到最后一场也如同隔空而舞，是全片自说自话的缩影。而导演试图在病痛问题和亲子关系间搭建一座桥梁的尝试，最后的成片剪辑确是无比割裂。上一秒是病床上的痛不欲生，下一秒就可以转身咖啡馆为女儿保驾护航。为了呈现母女关系如果只是把老生常谈的那套东西照搬银幕，那感动的泪水未免因太过功利而廉价……
看的点映，虽然整个剧情很好哭，但是明明很有镜头爆发力的几场戏，被张静仪黏黏糊糊的台词跟毫无状态的演技，搞成了不响的哑炮。徐帆的演技也大打折扣……
开篇女主那么兴奋的抬头看气球，喊了老公一声，不理。端饭到桌上，老公才吃。我仿佛看到了关于我妈妈的一切，付出付出再付出，季佩轸代表了那个年代中国大多数的女性，结局女儿问她一直为别人活值吗？她说：这是我的选择。但是你不一样，妈妈希望你过你自己想要的生活。
留意了片中段与片尾母女的两个正面镜头：新的女性抱怨旧的女性，而旧的女性祝福新的女性。
说实话，有些生气。这完全是在消费母爱。从没见过如此程式化的剧本和表演。1.故事究竟从谁的视角进？女儿还是妈妈？没有主视角直接导致影片变成流水账，谁都要讲一笔。妈妈果断剃头那里该是多么有张力的表演，直接切几个景别就过去了。2.到底要讲什么？在妈妈帮助下找到梦想、摆脱现在的生活是一种；抗癌过程是一种；重新认识妈妈是一种；记录坚强乐观的妈妈是一种……出口有很多，但主创最终什么也没选。不选也可以，但旁观、观察式电影有不错的标杆——给奔涌的情绪找到平静的出口，影片淡然却让观众泪流满面。
其实还是不错的，不过和同名的电影比立意差太多
歌颂母爱之作，全方位地塑造了一位非常中国式的传统母亲形象——不辞劳苦，任劳任怨，为老老小小的全家人操碎了心，基本
以为会哭的很惨，但并没有。父亲对母亲的深情、母亲对弟弟的亲情、母亲对婆婆的放心不下、病友之间的惺惺相惜，故事中其他情感，都比母女情动人。母女之间的情感和戏剧冲突，很狗血。
叙事的割裂感相当严重，大部分人物都表现的...不正常。但情感表达上还不错，不过我还是对亲情没什么特别的感觉，上一场《峰爆》我才哭的稀里哗啦。
有人说又是这一套，但是我就很吃这一套，从头哭到尾，只有又当女儿又当妈妈后才能加倍理解这份感动。
做女人好难🤯忍辱负重任劳任怨，没有怨言无私奉献的母亲，一切都是为了孩子为了老公为了父母为了弟弟。 真的这样的母亲就伟大了？
