Tokyo Ghoul

This is a well written film with good visuals. My only critisism is that the weapons such as the kagunes or quinques don't look realistic. Also the blood looks lumpy.

This was an interesting movie. The acting is not the greatest but I liked the story. This is what made it worth watching. I started it thinking that I would not like it very much but decided I should give it a try. Im glad I did. Dont approach it expecting a total block buster drama, but rather as what it is..A comic book adaptation movie. Some of it is pretty goofy but as its based on a comic book i give it them. Best for a younger audience, but including myself from a more middle aged group I still enjoyed the movie.

I've seen several live actions before and usually I'm not really impressed by them. This was one different. For a live action, it stays really faithful to the story and I think a sequel would be a great way to continue this as I ended the movie wanting to see more. I wish some physical particularities from the characters had been kept in the movie, but at the same time if that happened perhaps it would take away the realness of it all.

While the general world is very similiar to the premise of the "vampire society living in our world" there are a few twists. The "Ghoul" society is a secret society that exists in our world, and eat humans. However, we take the side of the Ghouls in this story against the human police organisaiton that hunts them down. The Ghouls themselves are split into sectors, and fight each other.

The world developed is an interesting one, and very Japanese. Acting is very good, as are the special effects. Overall, a pretty interesting film, really not pure horror or action film, but a touch of both. The confusion of the main character, who spends most of the film trying to come to grips with what he is, is a nice major plotline. In this film, its the Ghouls that seem to have the humanity, not the humans. If you like vampire cinema, Japanese movies, horror, or science fiction, you will definitely like this.

I liked it, it vaguely reminded me of the excellent "Death Note", keeping the respective differences, both have a dark theme, with adolescent clothes, which I like a lot, stripped script, bloods and tentacles, adorable ... From the middle to the end, there was a drag unattractive, between the girl and her late father, but she recovers and the final bloodbath pays off...
