Takeshi Kitano is truly Japan's best kept secret. I found out about him from Quentin Tarantino's Rolling Thunder DVD releases, a short lived home video company he started up with Miramax in which he unleashed Sonatine to the U.S. Kitano was known as a comedian and t.v personality to Japan in his early days (Shows like Takeshi's Castle or as you might know it, most extreme elimination Challenge)Until he began dipping his toes into film in which it was hard for Japanese audiences to take him seriously. That is until this film was released, his 7th. After suffering a motorcycle accident around 1994 which I've read was an "unconscious suicide attempt" he recovered, and continued film making. Dispite the large majority still not thinking of him as a film maker 6 movies into his career and countless acting rolls. He picked up painting as a hobby because of being wheelchair ridden and you see his life experiences played out in this film even his paintings are used. I've never seen someone be so cool so effertlessly as him and whenever someone mentions minimalist films he is first to mind. His filmography ranges from Yakuza style to samurai to heartfelt to his comedy roots. Living in America it is somewhat difficult to track down some of his films many of them being on out of print older DVDs, so this release from film movement was a welcomed edition to the collection (previously only available on New Yorker Video DVD circa 2000.) Film movement has two of his other films on Blu Ray his first and second, However true Kitano fans will come to notice His surrealist trilogy is nowhere to be found for region A players. In which he goes all out even poking fun at himself, hopefully in time his movies will be getting the treatment they deserve with releases like this in the future. So if you are a fan of cinema, appriciate directors, or tired of all the mainstream reboots/remakes/sequels filling our theaters throw up some of his trailers on YouTube and you'll be Itching to see what has been hiding in the shadows this whole time.

    Liked the concept better than actual movie It just moved far too slow
  

*by J***G on Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2021*

Hana-bi is about the legacy of being a cop. Takeshi Kitano is a former policeman who can’t seem to escape the violence of his past but wants to for his wife. Ren Osugi is his former partner who is trying to start anew after being paralyzed. Like many of Kitano’s movies the pace is very slow. For instance, Osugi starts visualizing paintings leading to endless shots of his concepts. There are also brief bits of violence in Takeshi style. I have to say I liked the concept more than the actual movie. It just moved at a snail’s pace.

    Wild ride, both sentimental and violent.

I don't really care for most of Kitano's movies but this one is special. Has interesting out of time sequences, personal family tragedy plot intertwined with criminal elements and police actions. A couple of violent parts but overall a beautiful quirky movie. Great music by Joe Hishashi (I bought the soundtrack album).
