A couple of hours ago, I saw City of Strangers.

It is visually inventive like very few american director can equal today 
(except David Fincher of course!), has a form of poetry in it (insects 
becoming tatoos, a little girl lost in a crazy adult world...), sense of 
humour (copaeira/brazilian martial art like scenes), expresses views on 
multi racial japanese society...

Too bad it is flooded by a useless and gratuitous violence, and sometimes 
tiresome yakusa story.

Still i'd rather see any Takeshi Miike's pictures than today's Kitano's 
heavy films.

Tomorrow, two movies by Takeshi Miike's can be seen at the Etrange Festival 
: Visitor Q and Black Angel vol.1

since i cannot be in 2 theaters at the same time, which one should i 
choose...and why?



Christophe.
