First Love (2019 Miike Takeshi)

Rocky!

You must be tired from prison: I've booked you a room in a spa!

You're dealing with: A large tumor!

Hallucinations: I see people!

Don't get blood on my pants: I can't wear them again!

For now: I don't think you should go back to work!

Dancing-hallucination-in-his-skivvies Fu!

I want to see things myself: But I don't want to take drugs!

Sword Fu; Gun Fu; Taser Fu!

GPS Fu; SUV Fu; General Badassery Fu!

Yakuza Fu; Triad Fu!

Speed Freak Fu; Captive-girl Fu!

How many: Does that make today?

Just-Say-No Fu!

Nothing-is-as-it-seems, nothing-goes-right, caper/vengeance/sexual-slavery film. Think of written-by Donald Westlake on a tub of bad acid.

Raunchy, Extremely violent, Extremely bloody: So a great date pic!

Miise Takashi at the very very top of his game--with one of his patented freaky endings.

If you are in to this kind of thing, this is the best you will get to see for a while. Check it out!

Spoiler:

Don't ever let yourself think you know who the next badass will be.

 2-21-17 Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind I thought I had seen this animation before. It's considered the first Ghibli. Turns out I had never seen it -- but might have read some of the comic books. Anyway, it was really fantastic. I had a great time and can't recommend it enough. Post-Apocalypse: Check. Princess Heroine: Check. Cute pet: Check. Fanciful Flying Machines: Check. Warring Tribes; Warring Species; Warring Ecologies: Check. Sword Fights: Check. Kinda Like? -- Dune. Sand Worms? -- No, Doodle Bugs. Really, really, really good. Check it out.

 Ad Astra 47 BPM: For the future of Mankind! Nothing on the surface: Pirates! Moon buggies! WTF! Mayday from Norway: Planet of the Apes! WTF! Rage! They are using me: Goddam them! Nothing fits: In the current political climate! What's with: All the psych evals? Buck Rogers: No, Hamlet! I regret to inform you: That all crew members are deceased! HAL: Now being played by a down lineman from Harvard. Why go on: Why keep trying? We're: All we've got! I am focused on the essentials: To the exclusion of all else. I had a great time watching this. Visually stunning on the big screen. Pitt nails it. Rather than a dramatic whole, it's a string of episodes that make no sense whatsoever. Check it out!
