Golden Kamuy

Hope everyone stuck around after the credits for the cut scene. The scenery, costumes, and acting was on point. It kept the humor I loved from the anime. Anime fans would be delighted. No fan service so far lol but still a solid live adaptation. The actress was a bit older than I imagined but I can understand why they chosed a older actress for the main female. I look forward to the next installment and hope Golden Kamuy fans support this so we can see it to the end. Awesome job! Up there as one of my favorite live adaptations. The screenplay writer did a excellent job bringing it alive. GOLDEN KAMUY.

From the actor's performance to the scenery to the outfits everything was so well considered taking into account the manga and the anime. I think a better job for an anime adaptation has not been made in such great detail. Being a big fan of the manga and anime, my hopes were low for the live action, but I was proved wrong and rightfully so. They also gave great detail to making the set exactly like the story, from the jail to Asirpa's house and so on. Not to mention they followed the story so well, not leaving anything out and putting in parts that even the anime didn't incorporate. The actor's interpretation was really good. Truly an amazing job I cannot wait for the second movie!

I understand that Golden Kamuy is an anime, I didn't watch the anime but I watched this movie

Pros:

Action and Adventure is grade 10, nothing to complain about

The effects are also quite good

Some slang is explained

Cons:

We still find slangs that people who are not from China cannot understand, I mean internationally

The same goes for food, which you probably don't realize if it's a snack or a meal

We have no information how the main character became immortal And there should also be the connection between that wolf and the girl from the tribes, how he found him, trained him

Likewise for the negative characters, we have no information about their powers, even those with tattoos, and why they wear them, why they are wanted

And even the phase of how that tattooed man took that cartridge out of it

The story seems a bit incomplete

I think that the text could be a little better

In the end, the action and the adventure and the effects saved this movie being mediocre.

I watched the movie with prior knowledge of the story as I had once read the beginning of the original work. This film marks the first one I watched in a theater in 2024. I saw comments in some reviews mentioning that Anna Yamada, who portrayed Asiripa, seemed too mature. Although I can understand that perspective, I actually quite liked Yamada's portrayal of Asiripa; her performance was adorable. Hiroshi Tamaki's acting was also perfectly unsettling, in a good way. Overall, it was fantastic. I sincerely hope that more adaptations of manga originals can be meticulously and successfully brought to life in movies, just like this one.

2024film-002(1/30/2024) Having read only the early parts of the original manga series, I watched this adaptation already familiar with the storyline. It became the first movie I saw in theater in 2024. I've come across comments suggesting that Anna Yamada, who portrayed Asirpa, looks too mature, compared to the original manga, and while I understand the sentiment, I actually liked her portrayal. Anna Yamada's performance was charming, and Hiroshi Tamaki's acting was disturbingly (in a good way) spot-on. Fantastic! I earnestly hope for more careful and successful live-action adaptations of manga-based works like this movie.
