Review of Cure (1997) by Florian P — 23 May 2012
Interesting cinematic survey in hypnotic subject and bizarre fantasy plus passive murdering scenes seem good in Kurosawas's suspense film, probably his best movie yet. Its slow tone helps film to expand mystery of film and amazingly makes it entertaining.
Hopefully Kurosawa did not accelerate the story and film's tone, just imagine if this movie had been made in Hollywood with Bruce Willis in the leading role!? Serial killer murdering his victims without touching them and leaving a single evidence is a great idea that could be enlarged in some pages of the screenplay, though slow tone of the movie plus mystery and suspense of the spiritual killer could add more spice on this horror and suspense film.
