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
没看过原著，看着还可以，尽管一开始就觉得Simon有问题。
结局的凶手自杀太强硬，正步看下来，没发现有什么细节可推敲。感觉就像是导演说：嗯，时间差不多了，该揭秘了
及格水平不能更多，第一不如老版，第二不如上一部东方快车，登场人物有些改动性设置就算亮点了，前面一小时漫长的铺垫让人瞌睡连天，谋杀开启后匆匆过场的推理又敷衍毛躁，而且布拉纳的自恋属性在这一部已经拉满到我快要无法忍受，好在是群戏十分出色，不至于太跳戏。
肯尼斯没事做可以去搞原创IP，大可不必在这霍霍阿婆，虽然不是原著党，但总觉得要对原著有尊敬吧。这寄吧改得什么啊。
前半部分过于拖沓和后半部分调查的缩减使得原本优秀的故事一定程度上被削减了吸引力
三次看完，无聊至极，极其自恋，抛弃了人物塑造，悬念设置，和节奏，太无聊了。
拒绝魔改！最不能接受的点：都掏出枪来互指(拜托不是西部片) 在这之前的改编还勉强能接受；信口指证推石头的人 零推理 那人竟然还当场承认；波罗有好几个特写像希特勒 还剃胡子...槽多无口啊

短小精悍的网大动作片，质量超出预期，谢苗的形象也不错，期待能跟香港那些动作片大导演多在大银幕上合作合作，未来可期。
画面很棒，没看过老版，就是后面侦探是怎么得出结论的没讲明白，有点闪
非常有想逛同款主题公园的冲动，被前半段的宣传片狠狠地打动了。
开头Bouc直接出场介绍每个人以及各自的嫌疑，让波洛在船上与各个角色交谈，让Linnet和各个角色的恩怨慢慢展开不好吗，这么懒？Linnet看见现任的ex当场崩溃，精明能干聪明勇敢以及可恨可爱的气质全无，这是认真的吗？！凶器一开始就出现，有毛病？选角都好差，演技更是全无，一家人说两家口音本来就够好笑了，只有Annette Bening一如既往演技在线。
服化道不错，埃及风光也很美，但实在是拖沓，一个多小时才进入正片，推理的部分也不够精彩，感觉就是让一堆明星华丽地走一下过场，莫名的歌舞也蛮无聊。
好片，好久没有看见动作戏这么凌厉的片子了，还是个个网大，鼓励一下
原著摆在那里，想要拍的有新意很难，毕竟的观众见多识广严格的很。为了重温埃及美景去看的，结果大场面全是CG，人像各个带着“毛边”…..并不觉得这位大导演导戏功力好，很多细节太明显了，有点刻意。但服化造型很加分，加朵太美了，连眼角的细纹也好美…
盖尔加朵看起来才像凶手怎么回事？？？啊可能姐姐气场太强大了！开头还以为走错片场，前面双人舞好性感~！
老影城cinity厅最后的纪念。画面貌美，缺乏推理，有些情节离奇，比如一上来长镜头描述二战以及最后呼应强加的感情线
10岁时，他又在《赤子威龙》（又名《给爸爸的信》、《父子武状元》）中再次饰演李连杰的儿子——巩固。
救命，比1978版差了几个火星吧，无论是演员颜值还是表演，剧本、人物塑造、情节展开，统统倒退五十年，完全是一败涂地啊
全世界最伟大的侦探阻止不了战争，也阻止不了谋杀，那世界还需要波洛做什么呢？
