A captivating, Lynchian mindjob of a movie that pitches us diabolical curveballs throughout. The biggest flaw is an ending that's a little too neat and tidy for what's come before.

A mindfuck of near-unrivaled intensity with intertextual references to gialli and slashers, satire of fandom and celebrity culture and metatextual exploration of the boundaries between diegetic world, the fiction in that world and character psychoses. We share Mima's anguish and are thrown with her into the downward spiral of an ever-twisting story which breeds 'Mulholland Dr.' and 'Black Swan', albeit prefiguring both. Superb direction by Kon. Such a shame that he only got to make four films.

One of my all-time favorite films, not just in animation, thriller, or some other arbitrary genre pigeonhole. This is my gold standard because it is assured in subject matter, theme and moral, while its more mature elements serve the story, not the other way around.

Beautifully deranged thriller that deconstructs its entire narrative according to some increasingly relevant psychosocial horrors. Takes what it needs from giallo (& Lynch?) while grounding itself convincingly to the world of Japanese ent.ind. & maintaining a strong personal voice. Damn near flawless in its structure as every scene, edit & design choice is meaningful, transformative & supports the whole. I didn't really buy the therapeutic final scene but yeah, this was my kind of fucked up.

I always wonder about animated movies. Somewhere, someone came home to their spouse and kids and when they asked, "What did you do at work today?" they had to lie because they spent all day drawing a closeup of an exposed female crotch. I really liked the deterioration of reality that takes place which means it's time for my annual recommendation of Uncle Kent 2. Nobody's listening.

Creepy. At times it's a bit tough to decipher in literal terms, but in general it works very well as a desperate and paranoid depiction of an identity crisis. The animation itself is not particularly awe-inspiring, but there are plenty of beautiful images scattered about. The film is technically rather audacious, boasting a very complex editing structure to demonstrate the blurring of reality and illusion, but this never becomes overwhelming.

I'm not sure my mind has ever been toyed with this much in a movie. I was so invested and entertained that I watched it again an hour after the credits rolled. Very original, extremely well directed and edited, and exceptionally told. Definitely not for the faint of heart, but everything was unsettling and creepy and strange that I couldn't turn away. I loved every second of it and I'm already excited for when I watch it again.

The obvious highlight here is the editing, which does a brilliant job of blurring the line between reality and dreams, as well as fiction (the primary narrative) and metafiction (Mima's films). I can see why people are quick to invoke comparisons to Mulholland Drive. It's hard to say whether Kon is employing some rather unfortunate anime cliches or commenting on them, but fortunately it's not too indulgent. It's a hell of a ride, though I think I prefer Paprika.

It's anime giallo as Satoshi Kon channels Argento and Bava in this psychological thriller. It gets a bit repetitive at points, but it provides a few surprises and is sufficiently entertaining. The short running time is a big asset, any more of this and it would wear out its welcome. I did think most of the animation was rather mechanical and unappealing, though. Also, despite the quasi-feminist viewpoint, there's an awful lot of rape. However, I enjoyed it more than the other Kon I've seen.

for a film about identity crisis and confusing fiction with reality, this is actually more coherent than your average j-horror. really well done retro slasher with a lot of relevant commentary on big japanese cultural issues, and some ambiguous arty dream sequences thrown in for good measure. the animation is not high-budget but is really well-directed and effective.

I've always had an affinity for films with shifting perspectives that constantly melt into one another. There is no difference here -- as masterful editing and a tricky use of metafiction kept me on my toes the entire time. The film is an identity puzzle that's fun to chew on, though lacks the emotional resonance of the films it went on to inspire (Mulholland Dr, Black Swan). Kon was a step ahead of everyone else and I look forward to exploring the rest of his labyrinths.

Hot take: the Mima that won in the end isn't "old" mima nor "new" mima, but a third one. Her problem all along was her inability to contain her own opposing parts: past vs present, expectations vs authenticity, purity vs sexuality, sanity (blue) and insanity (red). Her victory is in achieving a new mode of being: Synthesis Mima - one that contains her multitudes and has gained sanity and agency for it, as stated in the last shot by her being behind the wheel at last and engulfed in blue.

Holy shit, the most intense thriller I've ever seen. The spiral from paranoia into psychosis sucks us in through a first perspective fever dream. We never know any more than Mima does, and as an audience we experience the same disorientation and confusion as Mima. It blurs the line between acting, delusion, and reality. Phenomenal editing, some beautiful compositions, and top quality hand drawn visuals. I've never felt so uncomfortable/uneasy when watching a film before, genuine sense of dread.

DAMN, what a mirage dream film which sucks you in so far that you yourself begin to forget what reality is like. This film was the pinnacle for many thriller films like whiplash are made. The animation and story is so perfect that you honestly forget its animated. I won’t lie it is confusing but the story keeps ramping up you dont have time to figure it out which keeps on adding to the ever anxiety inducing soundtrack. Which to add the soundtrack is quite sureal as it fits perfectly to the film

Fandom, celebrity, identity, and losing one's youth is just the tip of the iceberg of topics covered in Satoshi Kon's haunting depiction of Japanese pop-culture. The film develops into physiological horror as the main character losing her sense of reality, which gives way to some quite shocking stuff. Really impressive.

Perfect Blue moves way too fast for its own good, and is too discernible where it tries to be confusing and thrilling. I found most of the revelations to be pretty obvious, and the final one comes out of nowhere for the sake of being shocking. The main character is also stupid and annoying. Some cheap animation quality and ugly faces here and there that's far below anything else of Kon's. Still worth seeing, but I like the story concept more than how it's carried out.

I haven't seen many movies that so adroitly weave their themes and motifs into the narrative and aesthetic. Like most of the best stories, this one uses a specific situation (in this case, a pop idol undergoing a career change) to comment on a general aspect of human nature (in this case, aging). It helps that Satoshi Kon did practically everything right along the way.

An overly lauded anime movie that I had a hard time paying attention to, much less following it's confusingly nonsense plot.

Fantastic psychological thriller. The animation isn't breathtaking but is sufficient and doesn't hinder the sense of realism. It's short, captivating and terrifying. It really does convey the sense of helplessness, the loss of surroundings and lack of reality that the main character finds suffering. I've heard it compared to Mulholland Drive by Lynch but for me it has a similar feel to that of Inland Empire. Even if you aren't a fan of anime, this is a fantastic film.

The film explores a lot of interesting themes about the nature of reality. Unlike later movies that were similar, this movie can pull of its cliches and deceits with lots of style and aplomb. There are some brilliant scenes and one stupid scene, but ultimately, in the end, it manages to keep itself together and finish in a tight and satisfying way. Perfect Blue is almost perfect.

A very messed up, twisted story with fantastic animation. Sometimes it's easy to get drawn to the confusing, trippy side of it so it can be tricky to tell what is real and what is not and that's a great thing in a thriller like this. Also, perfectly paced and not too long a runtime for the story. Lynch-like feels were had here. Creepy tutu girl is chasing you with an icepick. Nopeee.

Satoshi Kon's feature debut is sort of an anime giallo. It was originally intended to be a live action film, but the move to animation seems to have made it a far better film. Kon uses animation to render Mima's fractured sense of reality in ways that would be very difficult in live action. It allows him to sell the film's somewhat implausible final reveal in a fairly convincing manner. It's really the only film of it's kind, but makes you wish there were a lot more like it.

Terrific! Perfect Blue asks the question that we desperately need to answer to ourselves: What happens when we lose control of our avatars when they become an entity of themselves, and they start shaping who we are? ~ People perceiving us in ways that we don't choose and that perception becoming reality. If you take away someone's identity then what's left?

Perfect Blue is an intriguing yet terrifying dive into maturity, identity, and the dangers of becoming a pop culture figure. We see our main character mentally deteriorate as scenes bleed into other scenes making the experience like a break-less exercise, showing what great editing can really do to a film. The line between reality and fantasy is blurred to such an extreme that I began to wonder how much, if anything, of what I was seeing was real, only adding to the anxiety-inducing atmosphere.

f I feel down on Perfect Blue at all it's not because it's an ineffective thriller. In the moment, it works really well; it keeps you guessing from the second the trauma happens right up until we find out exactly what's going on. But it doesn't have a ton to chew on and its ending feels too "Hollywood" for the rest of the production. Still, it looks great and it's more than entertaining enough. It just leaves on a disappointing note and doesn't have a ton of staying power.

Interesting examination of star culture, social pressures and an ensuing mental breakdown. Except for a couple of plot points it's very engaging and well put together. It commits to putting you in the mind of this pop idol turned actress and the slowly consuming break from reality becomes all the more interesting by the consistent perspective. Animated cinematography is easy to overlook, but there are some very well done compositions which combine with good editing to heighten the atmosphere.

What in the David Lynch… This has been on my radar for a long time. Finally seeing it, I’m not sure what to think. It’s very well animated for its time, the score is odd and memorable, and it’s equally weird and disturbing. It’s also interesting to watch it now and see how heavily it influenced Darren Aronofsky, especially with certain scenes being mirrored in Requiem for a Dream and Black Swan. I dunno if I’d say it’s “enjoyable”, but it’s certainly very well done and impressive.

Props to Kon for telling what is ultimately a fairly standard SWF slasher story in a unique way, by utilising the form of animation to more effectively portray Mima's fracturing mind-set, Ultimately seems more derivative of De Palma's brand of Giallo than really striking out in its own direction, but it's still a largely engrossing watch, with the animation design striking at times, and the murder scenes well-staged.

So many ways to interpret this movie and many feel fresh and poignant even today. I like to think of it as a movie about the transition from being a young adult to a full-fledged adult and the psychological damage that occurs when you realize doors are closing, you cannot do everything you ever wanted, and the distance between the life you dreamed of as a teenager and young adult becomes further and further away from the reality that is becoming more clear. Satoshi Kon was a treasure.

What could easily be mistaken for a trashy stalker-slasher actually morphs into something far more high brow. Kon's script and direction elevate this high above the source material and the original intent for the film, speaking directly into Japanese culture, celebrity culture, the internet age, exploitation, identity, the film industry, obsession... the list goes on. It's a tightly packed and profound piece of animation that is virtually impossible to absorb on a single watch.

Astonishingly relevant & ahead of its time, this movie basically predicted the 2010's & even the 2000's in a way that I'm not sure any other of its time did. It also serves as an eerily true-to-life portrait of celebrity life & specifically Japanese pop idol life- these women are objectified by society & stripped of their selves, just like Mima. It does have a few moments that remind you you're watching an anime in the worst way, but besides that it's genuinely pretty terrific. Worth seeing.

kafa yakan bir öykü. Kim neyi yaptı gibi bir soruyla hikayeyi takip etmeye çalışmak nafile.

An early exploration of the identity- shaping and challenging effect of digital technical traces, smartly doubled by the illustration of an idol as living in a perpetual tension between her synchronised fantasy image and her diachronisation (here depicted by the increasing exposure of her sluttishness), and of cultural industry as relying on both hypnotising effects of synchronisation and shocking effects of diachronisation. Challenging visual style, though a sense of melodrama in how it ends.

É um excelente filme de fato, mas eu esperava mais devido ao hype em torno dele. Uma coisa todos concordam: Aronofsky pode ir dormir na casinha do cachorro. BlurayRip no MakingOff.
