The Great Yokai War
Miike Takashi
Japan, 2005, 124', Swiss Premiere
The movie
Tadashi is a young timorous boy, victim of the vexations of his classmates. One night, as he takes part in a traditional event, a dancer adorned by a Chinese dragon singles him out as a mythical warrior. And it is not light hearted! Tadashi finds himself taken in on the side of wild monsters in a veritable war of spirits. Humanity now only depends on his courage. Those who thought that Miike « Zeburaman » Takashi only made harsh and deviant films can think again. Taking his inspiration from traditional folklore and a manga from Shigeru Mizuki, he lets his fantastical imagination go and makes a breathtaking family adventure movie, that is both funny and spectacular.
