Truly Delightful and Enchanting Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
Last Sunday I was very fortunate to see acclaimed Japanese director Seijun Suzuki’s truly delightful and enchanting musical film operetta at a special BAFTA/Japanese Embassy Premiere in London. Its immense charm and attraction was the various mixture of diverse artistic, colourful and visual presentation styles and content, ranging from real locations, theatrical, operatic to scenic art backdrops. Combining these settings with tap dancing, ballet, folk songs, hip-hop, rock and roll, merging Eastern and Western classic and modern music styles, all beautifully rolled into one. All of these elements were executed with such panache, flair and elegance, by the cast and director, who all seemed to be having such fun! The mythical age-old story is really about love triumphing over adversity, and good over evil, but with a modern edge. This fairy-tale was so enjoyable because of the many messages (some quite subtle) contained and conveyed within the storyline. Popular Japanese heartthrob Joe Odagiri performs well as Prince Ameychiyo and Chinese actress Zhang Ziyi is appealing as Tanuki-hime, proving once again how chameleon like she is, able to adapt to any role she takes on, with an amazing maturity well beyond her years. The varied music soundtrack fitted well and the songs are catchy. Long live the Raccoons, (I might just have become one?)!
