sukiyaki western django - takashi mike (2007)









A really wierd film this, for starters, the voices are dubbed, even though they are already in English, and the colours are sometimes pretty bright. Sukiyaki Western Django is essentially a tale of two Japaneses gangs fighting, but it is also done in a spaghetti western style (with a cameo from Quentin Tarantino). Very strange indeed. It does have the odd funny bits, but not that many, as it's mainly pretty violent (although one funny bit is also a pretty violent scene). The classic tale of a stranger coming into town and sorting the gangs out, but l wouldn't say it is that great, certainly not as good as the Clint Eastwood westerns, or the Akira Kurosawa films. I did however, love the colours and backdrop.
