The movie is quite violent and puzzling, if you are not into that, it cannot be recommended to you then.

Puzzling... yeah well, this movie might seem confusing and the story rather strange, but there's so much more. There are few quite unforgettable scene and character in it. I doubt that I ever forget how a cassette with Frank Sinatra's My Way taped on it, is taken out of a dead woman's stomach with bare hands (yes, it's there, just behind the liver..) But the gore is not all what's in this film. Another great scene is a one where Ageha is "getting a tattoo" and remembering the time when she saw a butterfly for the first time. There are so many levels in the movie, and it means a lot more than it looks like.

Two hours a dream

Every time I saw Viddy throw millions of dollars into the fire, I was moved to tears.

The movie's temperament and butterfly face impressed me deeply, like a dream of a branch boy. Is "Blue Sky" not a refuge for all runaway teenagers?

The world in the eyes of teenagers is like the chivalrous world in Jin Yong's works. Despite the cruelty of the world, good people can still play freely. The dead can also be remembered forever. I dreamed for more than two hours. Enough.

Like many of you, I search the internet for unknown gems of cinema. I happened to pass by a thread on powerful films. I kept on seeing the same names: City of God, Carandiru, Pulp Fiction, Amores Perros, Saving Private Ryan and then I saw this. The person talked highly of it, I researched it a little more. Being a very big fan of Asian film I decided to find it cheap, which I did on eBay, and then buy it. One of the best buys I've had in a while. A few other good buys were DEAD MAN'S SHOES, THE DESCENT, BAD BOY BUBBY and A ROOM FOR ROMEO BRASS.

This story pretty much has it all. It has all the elements of a great drama. To name a few, it was funny(love how they spoke English), tragic, thoughtful, violent and memorable. I apologize but I'm not going to describe the movie to you, because it's slightly difficult to do. I can say that it's about people called Yentowns who live in a city named Yentown. Sounds simple, but the movie delivers on so many levels that it's anything but.

I hope you enjoy the film as much as me. If you enjoyed the movies I mentioned above, there are not many reason for you not to. It's not a perfect film, but it definitely gets the job done. It's really a fantastic film.
