Sukiyaki Western Django - Miike Craziness
So last night I watched Sukiyaki Western Django directed by Takashi Miike. It's pretty much what you would expect from his movies, super crazy plot, beautiful shots, random humor. The movie starts off with Tarentino playing a gun slinging cowboy shooting a hawk in midair and then cutting open the snake that the hawk is carrying to get an egg that the snake ate to make sukiyaki. Whew...... The scene leads to the main story the war between the white clan and red clan - a bloody, fucked up, yet really funny epic drama. What really blew my mind was that the Japanese actors were speaking, or trying to speak an old western style English. I couldn't really understand what they were saying so I had to turn on the English subtitles. Even though that might seem like an inconvenience, I thought that the jengrish was kind of charming. Soo yeah, some really good Miike craziness.
