Anyone wanna recommend any japanese movies or bands i mean it seems kinda hard to find them in america
The two Death Note Movies i reckon were pretty good. You might wanna try them if you haven't seem them already.
hero movie starred takuya kimura as the public prosecutor...the final of hero series..ah..wish there will be more, i really love this movie
If you are looking for live action and non anime then try picking up Azumi. It is an older movie but it was awesome.
Survive Style 5+ Summer Time Machine Blues Unlucky Monkey D.A.N.G.A.N Runner Love Letter Swallowtail Butterfly All About Lily Chou-chou Ashita no Watashi no Tsukurikata (How to Become Myself) Shindo Kimi ni shika kikoenai (Calling You)
I really like Shunji Iwai movies like Swallowtail Butterfly that rainmountain mentioned as well as Hana and Alice, and April Story. Josie, Tiger and the Fish is really good too.
Chakushin Ari (One Missed Call) Abingdon Boys School-Abingdon Boys School Abingdon Boys School-Blade Chord
Survive Style 5+ Battle Royale Kairo Suicide Circle The Bird People in China Mushishi (just to name a few in various genres. There are many more good ones, but it is difficult to recommend something without knowing what you usually like)
I thought this film was interesting but I got a little motion sickness watching it so I gave up trying to finish it. I second Death Note and Battle Royale. I don't really watch much Japanese films.. I heard Paprika and Tekkonkinkreet is good if you're into animated films. The Girl Who Leapt Through Time was okay too.
I also wached the girl who leapt through time, and I think it's good. Another animated movie I like is Millennium Actress. As a real movie I reccomand "Kamikaze Girls". This movie is pretty much fun. With these two really different girls... One with Rokoko-style and the other from the cycle gang. Great friendship!
If your looking for action I recommend Zatoichi (2003) and Dororo. They're both pretty good action movies.
As far as drama movies go, 'Be With You' is definitely worth watching. I thought Battle Royale was good, but not great. Overrated imo.
two things. first i strongly second moon child. its a pretty cheesy movie but that didnt stop me from watching it 500 million times. (it has a permanent spot in my dvd changer) and second, OMG a third death note? is it out? any release date on it yet? ?!?!?!?!
