![]() ![]() When making its second appearance in Homeless Emperor's vision, it looked like a giant humanoid figure made entirely out of flesh and bones with no face. When Saitama, Flashy Flash, and Manako peered through a hole while they were underground, "God" seemingly appeared to be in another dimension and it looked like an extremely massive humanoid entity, so much so that it completely dwarfed the hole they peered into. "God" is described by Psykos as reminiscent of Jupiter's surface with countless spiraling spots overlapping over one another. So how would this stack up against other zombie titles? well let's say to me it made zombies scary again and kind off remind me why this genre has been one of the favorites for these past decade and that last minutes was a FREAKING-INTENSELY-GORY-HEAD-EXPLODING FINALE.Ĭheck my Blog for other reviews & other JDramas stuffs.In its first appearance, "God" looked like a swirling gust of wind with scribbles that outline a person. Kasumi Arimura's character didn't do as much here so I can't asses how he did in this film. I was especially disappointed with Nagasawa Masami's character cause that character is very different from the manga, her character supposed to be a baddass. As for Nagasawa Masami and Arimura Kasumi, they were at least mediocre. Oizumi Yo gives a solid performance his zero to hero transformation was believable, though he doesn't look like the character in the Manga at least his persona reflects hideo, kudos to him. Song at the end it quite nice, it captures the atmosphere of the movie well. Music is intense if it needs to be intense. The sound effects are amazing too, the squishy sounds once their head exploded was done right. Visual effect are spectacular as they did something very different here, zombies veins are black, they deform differently once they became zombies, They move and contorts like insects. This gun is vital to the story as owning a shotgun at this situation means you are the king, this became the point of conflict with humans in the story as someone wanting it badly enough to kill for it and the way it serves as a metaphor for Hideo's character development is a work of a mad genius, like only in japan, the land of metaphors. One interesting thing about this movie is its setting, it is in Japan where there are only few people who owns a gun and our protagonist owns it as a hobby. One day zombie apocalypse happens, miraculously he's one of those who survive then he met this girl that he promised to protect with his life. The story revolves around Hideo who is a once a promising mangaka but his dreams always stay out of reach for the reason that his characters were pretty normal like him, he has a relationship that is about to end, in short he is somewhat your typical loser protagonist. I Am Hero is based on a Manga of the same name and It has been one of my favorites in recent years and let me remind you Manga is not yet finished so the movie as well, but that doesn't mean the movie will leave you hanging, in fact they adapted the best ARC in the Manga and finished it damn well and they did convey that theme in the Manga in this movie, so what is the theme? Well just read damn the title my friends. Rewatch Value 9.0 This one deserves a review so here it is. ![]()
