 JAPANESE action, sci-fi, adventure films Would be highly appreciated if someone could recommend some japanese movies in those genres.
I have heard about casshern and was wondering if the movie is any good?

Re: JAPANESE action, sci-fi, adventure films Death Note, Death Note 2 is okay, but the original is the best.
But I suppose it is more a thriller than an action, sci-fi or an adventure film.

Re: JAPANESE action, sci-fi, adventure films Gozu is certainly a very adventurous movie.
Versus is a good action/Matrix rip-off.

Re: JAPANESE action, sci-fi, adventure films I liked the sequel. Not as smart and ambitious as the original, but certainly more entertaining.

Re: JAPANESE action, sci-fi, adventure films Battle Royale is awesome. It's the Animal Farm for Japanese education.
Have you seen Sky Captain? Casshern is animated using the similar technology. The movie might feel somewhat awkward, as its plot progression feels very Japanese. I suggest you watch it though, you won't be disappointed. If only it's available in 3D, it'd kick Beowulf out of the water.

Re: JAPANESE action, sci-fi, adventure films Battle Royal is great. I'm pretty sure Suicide Club is Japanese, but I would check it out anyway Also check out the trailer for Machine Girl, if your like me, you will need some tissues after seeing this. http://twitchfilm.net/site/view/disfigu ... l-trailer/
