I didn't know what to expect. An hour and a half glued to the screen, smiling at every "meow" and yawn, with clenched fists and apnoea at every jolt or change of wind. This film is a transposed poem, a gem that can only be adored.

Ichi the Killer 2001
I just watched Ichi the Killer, and I was absolutely blown away. I was fascinated by how, for each character, violence holds a different meaning—sometimes even cathartic and introspective. Kakihara's obsessive quest for someone who could make him feel pain again becomes his sole reason for living, an obsession that defines his entire existence. On the other hand, Ichi's psychosis, skillfully manipulated, reveals how fragility and the inability to distinguish reality from dreams can be turned into a deadly weapon. It's a film that delves into the depths of human nature, leaving a profound and lasting impression.
