Kokuho Reviews

transformative is an entirely accurate descriptor, holy shit

I hate nepotism even more after watching this movie. But it was cool to see this art form, even if it’s in movie form

beautiful

Beautiful symbolisms

yeah this is a masterpiece 9/10

So unique, but I don’t quite know how to put my feelings about it into words

A bit slow-paced but still it was beautiful and calm, liked it

this was so pretty, i cried 2 times in the cinema. the cinematography, acting, actors and everything was perfect. couldnt get over kikuo's performance at the end. while i wouldve liked more on the relationship btwn shunsuke and kikuo, i think the whole movie was really beautiful

1.สวยงามทั้งในเรื่องของบท ดนตรี และศิลปะคาบูกิของญี่ปุ่น
2.ตัวละครทำให้เรารู้สึกว่านี่ไม่ใช่บทละคร แต่คือคนธรรมดาแบบเรา ที่ไม่ได้ร้ายหรือดีไปทั้งหมด ก็มีหลายๆด้านเหมือนคนทั่วไป
3.เหมือนนั่งรถไฟเหาะ ที่ทำให้คาดเดายากถึงจุดพีคแต่ละจุด

You can tell it’s adapted from a novel as it glosses over so much and constantly does time jumps, with a very formal “X Years Later” card, to the point it’s a bit distracting. I don’t LOVE it but it’s definitely still a very well made film with excellent cast and crew. The performances alone are all award-worthy and worth several watches.
