Watch The Parasite Doctor Suzune: Evolution For Free

Instant Favorite.

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

It probably will make more sense reading the Manga of this. Of course many will and can argue that books (even books with pictures) are always in an advantage when it comes to things like this. But there is so much wrong here. Most of which I already stated over at the first part of this "series": Acting, directing and so forth.One of the things that sort of worked in the first one, was that a couple of jokes actually were acceptable. This has almost no redeeming factor in it. Unless you count nudity, that's a different story. Though this is not a porn movie, if you are after something like that. The lingering on faces, the weak script and everything in here make this a really boring experience, something you normally are not used to, when watching Animes ... There was potential here, but I guess a Parasite corrupted the whole thing ...

I blame the editing. And the direction. And the acting. And the script.Oh, the script! Perhaps they started without one and hoped using enough (non)dramatic silences would enhance the depth of emotion the viewer would undoubtedly be experiencing. The film does generate some viewer empathy, but only the characters whose eyeballs pop out.If you like flashbacks then this has plenty of them. Each of them perfectly placed to add nothing at all to what I guess the director hoped was a story.Would have given 2 stars, but only if they hadn't made the film.
