Takashi Miike is like the Edgar Wright of Asian cinema. His movies are not only great, but they're brilliantly beautiful to behold. I wish all directors would strive to be as creative as Takashi Miike. One hundred movies, and the man is still putting them out, without hitting his peak and falling off. That, in itself, is an amazing accomplishment!
Word Unheard What makes Miike so great is he can go to any genre/taboo subject and no matter how outrageous or off the wall it is such a work of art that you are instantly hooked. Miike can also do serious drama and musical too. The man is a god damn legend.
@@emmanuelwilliams2323 So... we are going to forgive him for making Terraformer, Jojo, Lesson of the evil??? "What makes Miike so great is he can go to any genre/taboo subject and no matter how outrageous or off the wall" Nothing special at all, Park Chan-wook also touches taboo subjects here and there, and he is millions times better than Miike. "The man is a god damn legend." Even though most of the time he makes terribly-produced movies.
You have very good points, my friend, and I grant you those most definitely. He's kind of like Nicholas Cage. His bad movies are god awful and his great ones are fucking amazing. Personally, since he directed both Blade of the Immortal, 13 ASSASSINS and Ichi: The Killer, I really don't care about the shitty stuff he makes. When he pulls it off, it's fucking great. But once again, you're right in your points. Didn't he direct those fucking terrible Dead or Alive game movies? lmao
@@ziednymubarok5182 Rurouni Kenshin and Bleach are a flare of their own... this movie is a lot like Bleach with a touch of Samurai X in it, but it has its own uniqueness into it
Now It’s an anime as well, and *very* well-done. I’ve just finished the anime, and I’m looking forward to checking this live-action movie out when I get a chance.
Takashi Miike is a great fit for Blade of the Immortal. His filmmaking could elevate this adaptation to stand on its own. I hope he doesn't dissapoint, so far the film is looking pretty fine; close to the source material in visuals and tone and seemingly loyal to Miike's style. Special mention to the perfect casting, at least in regards to appearance.

I grew up watching masterpiece movies like the good and the bad and the ugly and so on I am a huge movie buff of many genres of movie's and I love action film's alot too like Clint Eastwood and Charles Bronson and Chuck Norris and John wick and so on great actors like Charlton Heston and Gregory peck and so on but I have to say I absolutely love this movie this is one of the most awesome movie's of it's kind ever and manji is like a superhero this Japanese film , plot , story , soundtrack , scenery acting and actors just is awesome !!! This is one of my favorite movies of all time ever now and I love this movie !!! Great awesome director , actors !!! Everything about this movie kick's ass and I love it !!! Great awesome movie !!! I give it five stars and two siskel and Ebert thumbs up !!! On the scale of 1 to 10 in movie's it's an 11 easily !!! All the actors and actresses in this movie are awesome and outstanding and the director is awesome he should do a western or a horror film or a adventure/ fantasy film or even a sci-fi film !!!
This is on Hulu! It was the craziest action packed film I've ever seen. Manji is called the hundred killer and he earns that name in the very start of the film. Great Takashi Miike film.
maybe thats for the best cause ive seen the anime (still not watched the movie yet) soooo expectations for the live movie is low cause no way they can meet it lol
I just watched this , it is totally amazing . 1st class acting, great photography and amazing fight scenes . The big plus is that it has one of my all time favourite Japanese actresses in it Chiaki Kuriyama a.k.a Gogo Yubari
It's a downer he always get beaten to death, if it weren't for his bloodworms he would have lost every single fight against his main adversaries. Otherwise, for a fan of japanese film in general, Samurai,Yakuza films etc, an adaptation of a Manga that's actually really watchable, and well made. That scene with the girl with the Manriki-Gusari-style weapon, I have to say; I just saw it coming - why is he pushing his back against the flimsy wooden wall like that, she could easily sta...B HIM!!💥 And she did.
i know it's probably impossible, but i actually want it subtitled just like that. Night Watch's subtitles were crazy and it really added to the film. I hope this does the same.
???Definitely not. This movie is 140 min. long. You know that there will be dialogue scenes right? Do you really think they'll show us big ass letters popping up every 3 ms? XD ... No.... :( Don't worry my friend.
I CAME TO YT HERE AFTER WATCHING THE ANIME. I WAS HOPING TO SEE SOME FANMADE VIDEO, AWESOME EDITS ETC AND I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THERE IS THE LIVE ADAPTATION MOVIE AND I AM SO MOVED BY THIS TRAILER. AMAZING!!!!
Along with Rurouni Kenshin this is one of the best Japanese/samurai/martial arts movie I've watched. Any suggestions for some other movies at this level of greatness?!!
13 Assassins Akira Kurosawa’s entire filmography (Seven Samurai, Yojimbo + Sanjuro, etc.) all 25 Zatoichi films all 6 japanese Lone Wolf & Cub films Sword of the Stranger & Ninja Scroll (anime but very good)
This is samurai/martial-arts adjacent, but I liked a japanese action/comedy movie called "why don't you play in hell", that involves a group of film buffs trying to make a movie getting mixed up in a yakuza gang war.
80% of story in Manga has been neglected or omitted and many scenes were completely changed. Lack of intimacy and chemistry between Manji and Rin and so many other characters disappoints a bit but still, great action movie. If you haven't seen the original manga I suggest you enjoy the original as well because it's one of the best manga in Japanese manga history imo. Original manga is 100000000 times more cruel and better story. I watched the manga a while ago and I just could not feel the chemistry between characters in the movie.. But the sword-fight action alone is quite enjoyable. 10/10
I think so too. In the Manga manji said himself, he get more and more a worst fighter for beeing immortal and have difficulties with one enemy. Here he can fight with 100 at once. Bullshit
as someone who has read the manga many many times, i cant believe how authentic this is. Amazing.
What an awesome movie. Saw it last night and it was fantastic. The last 40 minutes are so action packed and the production values are great!
magnet films are grossly underrated. this masterpiece is one of them

That movie looks ridiculous... and I honestly can't wait to see it.
Reminds me of Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice but more ridiculous in it's own way.
i watch it, bloody, slasher movie, sometimes ridiculous
Read the manga its better

Have you watched the kenshin live actions?
Saw this movie today. It was awesome, met all my expectations

felt like watching a real-life anime. the characters and presentation is just great. filmmakers need to see this . such an inspiring art n film
Hey, i haven't watched this movie, did this movie better than rurouni kenshin and bleach?
Ziedny Mubarok In my opinion yes because you have very brutal scenes it’s Fantastic l love this movie you should see it
Now It’s an anime as well, and *very* well-done. I’ve just finished the anime, and I’m looking forward to checking this live-action movie out when I get a chance.
There's a anime now

Man: Just a scratch
Also man: His arm is on the ground.

I did
She's 16

Yup look so young but she was 19 in this movie.

Such a cinematic masterpiece !
The only thing I'm waiting for is the "Quentin Tarantino presents" in front of it. This seems right up his alley.
Stormy77 I love this movie it’s very brutal I want to see more movies like this
Quentin tarantino said takashi miike was one of his favorite directors
Love the manga. Can't wait!

The best samurai movie I've ever seen.. I wish they could do a part 2
Best movie I've seen in awhile 👌
"But you've lost an arm!"
"No I haven't. It's right there on the ground."
I LOVED THIS MANGA AS A TEEN! Sooo freaking excited for this now!!!
I feel lucky to have seen it in a theater.
This movie blew me away and I knew nothing about the anime/manga.
If you did know about the manga then you'd be sorely disappointed.
@@archlectoryarvi2873 The manga ending still hurts me to the core. I wished things went differently

100 films? That's crazy! This one looks like a blast though. Gonna definitely check it out
Orangeflava Takashi Miike never takes a off day.
Just watched this. It’s very, very good. Despite being over two hours long it keeps you gripped.
For anyone wondering the name of the song, it's called "Action" by Gio Nailtai.
Thank you.
Hi song is same by Gio Nailati Feat. Rebecca Rocklynn "Action" but by Male singer, is any one knew who's that
REPLY
@@stevegabrial1106 Thanks for the support! Gio Nailati - Action is the original song... Gio Nailati - Drop it Low is the movie version. :D
he makes such wonderfully batshit crazy films that are fun to watch and gorgeous to look at. can not wait.
This movie was so good I highly recommend it. Its a good watch.
The manga this is based on literally changed my life as a teen.
How did it change you?
What did it change you in to??
@@masterchief8042 he gets strength from the heroes determination
Can't WAIIIIT Seen 13 Assassin a dozen times.. I hope this story will be just as good

His films are way better than tarantinos
@@iandawe948 agreed
hands down
Wow just seeing a trailer for this randomly on Hulu. I read the manga twenty years ago, maybe I'll give this a go.
If you like japanese movies, watch any Kurosawa or Kitano films, the 2 japanese masters (for a more serious approach).
Name of the rap music is Drop It Low by Ty Frankel.
I just watched this , it is totally amazing . 1st class acting, great photography and amazing fight scenes . The big plus is that it has one of my all time favourite Japanese actresses in it Chiaki Kuriyama a.k.a Gogo Yubari
underrated movie. i think most of the people do not know this movie.
Dayum...just...dayum!

No season 2 but a live action movie😩... I'm still happy it wasn't forgotten. I didn't have the manga😢but watched the anime.
the anime is getting rebooted(it starts October 2019) so we may see more than 1 season.
Really good movie. 👍
That song is awesome, wish they'd put song credits at the end of trailers.
Thanks for the compliment! Original song is Gio Nailati - Action :D movie version is called Drop it Low, available everywhere.
Best movie I have seen in years
THIS IS A MUST SEE!!!! ONE OF THE BEST NINJA , SAMURAI MOVIES IN A LONG TIME.
One of the greatest movie I've watched along with titles likes rurouni kenshin
You wanna watch a good kickass movie this is the one to watch. It was amazing.
Fuck'n a
Now we're talking
indeed!
But will the whole movie be *SUBTITLED* _IN_ -TAGLINES-?
i know it's probably impossible, but i actually want it subtitled just like that. Night Watch's subtitles were crazy and it really added to the film. I hope this does the same.

what the fuck is ( atarring ) ..... BITCH ASS FUCKHEAD CAN'T SPELL SIMPLE WORDS.
I wish, but no. You get regular subtitles. Or just learn Japanese and you’re all set
kestral63 that would be kinda cool
This is my all time favorite movie trailer... (this version of it)
to really enjoy it, watch it in japanese, I don't understand a word but it makes it more intense and gives a better expression of the charakters.
Hope theres a sequel ..amazing film !!
Q.Tarantino would be enjoying this movie with a big tray of Sushi, total bloodbath, great movie
if you didn't know the anime adaptation of the manga is out on amazon prime video
How did this film miss my radar?! I watched 13 Assassins like 3-4 times, but missed this?!
the background music really cool

OMG! One of the Best Manga i have ever read. I can't wait. I did feel they flow though over 7 novels for one movie. But i am excited as hell!!!
This movie was so good
This trailer is hilarious in a way.
It's like 13 Assassins Brutality & Yakuza Apocalypse's Humour rolled into one beautiful little package.
This trailer is 100% accurate.
that beat drop....... Yeah
Saw this last night. The best film i seen in years! Easy 5/5
This movie was really good i enjoyed it, so brutal
And then a few centuries after Rin's passing, Manji decides to be a dectective for Kamurocho.

KatalistProductions-Kozzy-Sasha 13 Assassins was bloody awesome. Looks like Miike has once again made another gory fun samurai hit.
Yes, 13 Assassins was enjoyable, one of his more modern ones I really enjoyed. I love his old work to, this one is looking like a classic already!
Someone thought a song repeating "drop it low, girl" was SUPER COOL for the action scenes in this preview. 😒😂😂
When you have the hero acting it you can't go wrong..watched it n i was super impressed
Takashi Miike! Samurai's! Supernatural shit! Sign me in!!!!!!
sushi anyone ? .. epic .. we are sparta err sushi .. err killer flick .... me likey ... hope they find a way to make a few sequels ...
