Movies - Big Man Japan

Big Man Japan (2007)-


Directed by Hitoshi Matsumoto, "Big Man Japan" is truly one of the most unique films I have ever had the pleasure of viewing. Starting off as a fake documentary, featuring an isolated man who finds himself transforming into Japan's biggest superhero - the film revolves around him fighting Kaiju monsters of which have the recreated faces of famous Japanese comedians. For all the fans of peculiar Japanese sub-culture cinema, this film is the goldmine. By the time of the ending scene, I felt as though I had returned from another world, and in a good way. Acclaimed film Critic Roger Ebert was even a fan giving "Big Man Japan" a 3.5/4 stars.
