Mind Game



Director: Masaaki Yuasa
Genre: Adventure / Drama / Comedy
Language: Japanese (w/ english subs)
Year Of Release: 2004





"This award-winning film is a journey of self-discovery based on Japan's cult underground comic "Mind Game" by Robin Nishi. The story follows Nishi himself through the life experiences that directly inspired the semi-autobiographical "Mind Game" comic. As a college-age loser addicted to porn and aspiring to write seedy adult comics, Nishi aspires to overcome his addiction to perversion in a tale that is lighthearted yet painful and touching. What starts off as an innocent meeting between old friends quickly turns into a psychedelic extravaganza, filled with violence, sex, love, redemption, and the infinite possibilities of the human mind. Director Masaaki Yuasa rejoices in experimental animation techniques, filling the screen with virtuoso wackiness, mixing in rough lines and storyboards, then inserting photographic touches."

This is one of my all time favorite movies, even if you don’t like anime you’ll probably love this. The animation is really unorthodox, and the whole movie is extremely wacky; after watching this you feel good about life, and that’s a rare treat in movies these days.

MUST WATCH!!!!
