The prolific Takashi Miike co-wrote and directed this strikingly postmodern remake of Sergio Corbucci's 1966 Spaghetti Western, Django. The story is much the same, but the highly stylized fusion of Japanese gangsterism and operatic musings on the Western form makes for a wild and unexpected cult movie. Still, there is not much here beyond the film's relentlessly creative surface, making Sukiyaki a bit wearying. Feuding for centuries, the Genji and Heiki clans both arrive in a 19th century Nevada town, determined to find hidden treasure rumored to be there. In the midst of their fighting comes a solitary gunslinger (Hideaki Ito) courted by each clan to work for them. When he refuses, the cross-currents of betrayal and murder escalate, and hidden truths behind at least one tragedy, and the real identity of an unlikely shooter, come to the surface. The film's energy, dynamic camerawork and almost tongue-in-cheek performances are fun and admirable, and Miike has a fascinating sense of composition. The story gets a little soft just past the halfway point and Miike attempts to fill the void with exhausting new ways of filming bloody mayhem for its own sake. Quentin Tarantino has a small role as a mystery man with a link to these events. --Tom Keogh

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Warning
First Look Pictures has done this film and viewers a disservice. Aside from cutting 23 minutes from the original theatrical release, thereby making the narrative chopped and damaging the more fluid presentation of the original film, they have also overly saturated the color and brightness of the film during the reminiscent episodes, as well as some of the segments concerning the "Reds." I will applaud them for providing better clarity in the sound reproduction for dialogue, but ultimately would ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - I really wanted to like it...I did.
I just couldn't bring myself to do it. It took me several sittings to get through it the first time. Then I thought maybe I wasn't being fair to it so when some friends were over this past weekend we watched it together (all of them Miike fans too). The group consensus was that while we appreciated what he was trying to do with this, it just wasn't for us. I always find a bit of humor in most Miike films, no matter how sick. This just felt more like a Kung Fu Hustle type of deal, which isn't ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Weird and Awesome
I've only seen a handful of spaghetti westerns and enjoyed about half of them. This film is an obvious interpretation of that genre taken to a new level.

Essentially a Japanese samurai movie set in a western style Nevada desert town. The production team and cast consisted of mostly Japanese talent (Quinten Tarrantino is the exception), but they are all speaking english (not dubbed).

The film is funny, full of blood, and full of over-the-top martial arts and Shakespearean ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Miike Takashi Spaghetti Western in Broken English-HOT!
I watched it twice in a row. Artistic, colorful and in the grove with Suzuki's work like Pistol Opera; but this western is more stylishly western than any other Japanese film of this period. Cheesy Kabuki comic book look is hypnotic. Story is fun. A/V quality of BD is great! TrueHD power and Hi Resolution in all it's glory!
WARNING: Graphic use of grain and paper moon may upset limited observers.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Blu-ray
I am so happy this thing is being released on Blu-ray (just got a ps3)!!From what I've gathered this is going to be a two-disker, i's going to have BD Live Special Features like access to exclusive making of features, trailers and more! There should be deleted scenes too. I am stoked and can't wait to play this baby in 1080p!!!!
