members know little of the western world about Japanese humor, gender, we have access mainly extracts obtained from some television shows that faraway place, where you can usually see groups of participants who are subject to extreme situations to which we are unable to find sense given our cultural background. All the glorious strangeness and absurdity of this rare bird which is the Japanese humor is taken to extremes in Funky Forest, a film without rhyme or likely to become the most bizarre experience that many of you have seen on the big screen.
The monumental film of two hours is an effort by three Japanese directors, Hajime Ishimine, Shunichiro Miki and Katsuhito Ishii, the latter being apparently commands the triad was also responsible for writing the script for this modern theater of the absurd.
by very thin filaments narrative without rational justification, sequences Funky Forest divide the film into several parts that expose stories rooted in reality, but in seconds they become more situations that cause disbelief and laughter that particular feeling arises when one does not understand at all what we are seeing, but for some inexplicable reason it becomes impossible to look away.
Whether the stories that keep the viewer in suspense and not get anywhere, with great sequences involving small misshapen humanoids that are then used as tools, or the man who milk ejected giant nipples when she massaged a big ball that comes out of the year, Funky Forest is a very enjoyable film that will be treasured by all those fans of Asian humor and that despite its long duration the viewer is able to maintain in his seat, even daring to play with a relatively poetic final finale ends with the disconcerting journey.
A key aspect is the excellent electronic soundtrack produced by Toru Midorikawa, which assumes a vital role in many occasions and that becomes the main character for my taste is the best sequence of the tape.
starring a superb cast that includes Tadanobu Asano (Ichi the Killer ), Rinko Kikuchi (Babel ) and Ryo Kase (Letters From Iwo Jima ), the odd film effort was rewarded with the award for the film Toronto's most innovative and After Dark Film Festival continues to garner fans that have positioned it as a cult all undoubtedly worth seeing.
