camille l Parfaitement placé dans la filmographie de Takeshi Kitano, Glory to the Filmmaker est une sorte de version améliorée de Getting Any, une suite de sketches plus ou moins hilarants mais toujours très réussis et qui n'auraient pu être faits par personne d'autres que Kitano. En mélangeant les genres, quitte à aller parfois trop loin, Kitano réalise un de ses films les moins abordables, mais les plus satisfaisants. On y retrouve ses acteurs favoris comme Susumu Terajima et Kayoko Kishimoto, dans de très bons rôles. Kitano lui même y est absolument fantastique. Glory to the Filmmaker est une oeuvre décisive dans la filmographie de Kitano, une des ses plus grandes réussites. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Weird meta stuff. Lots of funny, surreal, seemingly random material here, but the over-the-top lack of reason or purpose that seems so novel at the start, becomes a bit of a drag by the end. --6.4/10-- Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member ???? ?????? ??????? ??? ???? ?? ???? ???? ?????? ??? ???? ?? ?????? ?????? ???? ?????? ??????? ??? ??? ??? ???? ???? ???? .. ?????? ???? ????? :)) Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member He successfully replicate his better half and flirt with nature of movie order Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member meandering, self-referential, pretentious, surreal and deeply bizarre; sort of like Takeshi Kitano's 'Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie,' this is more of a riff on filmmaking than an actual movie and it's out there; basically a series of clips from the films a semi-fictional Kitano character makes after renouncing gangster film; things don't go well and the once lauded director goes from one failure to the next; finally Kitano succeeds at creatong a spectacularly bizarre, profoundly Japanese, movie about... well, I'm not sure but there's a bunch of robots, a Japanese Jerry Lewis and some horrendous CGI; occasionally hilarious, often strange, and nowhere near Kitano's best Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member The Monty Python of Japan. There's a story structure in there somewhere, but that's not really the point. Randomness is the key to this film. If you're tired of films that make sense check this one out. If you're tired of film in general check this one out. And even if you're not...check it out anyway. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews
