Sukiyaki Western Django

rdfs:comment

The film takes its plot from the Spaghetti Western film genre - Django, among others, hence the name, although significant plot elements come from Yojimbo and its de facto remake A Fistful of Dollars: sukiyaki is a hot pot or "steamboat" dish often used as a generic label of "Japaneseness". Sukiyaki Western Django (スキヤキ・ウエスタン ジャンゴ Sukiyaki Western Django) is a 2007 Japanese film directed by Takashi Miike. The movie's plot is based on Sergio Leone's Sphaghetti Western "A Fistful of Dollars", as well as Akira Kurosawa's "Yojimbo". The movie makes references to Old Westerns and Samurai films including Sergio Corbucci's 1966 western "Django", Akira Kurosawa's "Yojimbo" and the "Dollars" trilogy by Sergio Leone. The entire film is shot in English, a notable fact since none of the actors involved were fluent in English at the time of filming.

Their leader is Kazuo Kiriyama. * Hollywood Atlas: More astute viewers may notice that Nevada is not in Japan. * Immune to Bullets: Bloody Benten reacts to being shot in the back 3 times by turning around and looking annoyed. * Implausible Fencing Powers: Along with Barehanded Blade Block, the white's leader can deflect bullets with his katana. * Instant Death Bullet: If you're not a main character. See Arbitrary Gun Power. * Kill'Em All: Nearly every character to have appeared on screen is dead by the last scene. * Knight Errant * Lead the Target: Used by the leader of the whites, Yoichi, who shoots "Henry" from kilometers away by "boomeranging" the bullets with gravity into his path. Three times! * Madness Mantra: During the final battle, Henry keeps stating that "This time, the Reds win!" * Nothing Up My Sleeve: The final gunshot. * Not So Harmless: It is the Sheriff that kills the legendary Bloody Benten at the end of the movie. And he is immediately killed by the old woman from the mountains with a grave marker. * Purely Aesthetic Era: More than one with Anachronism Stew. * Red Oni White Oni * Serial Escalation: How much can we eschew substance in favor of style? * Snow Means Death * Theme Music Withholding: a cover of Franco Migliacci's Django theme appears in the final scene. * There Is No Kill Like Overkill * The Sheriff: * Comic Relief * The Quisling * Butt Monkey * Toon Physics * Throw-Away Guns: In one shot in the final battle, the protagonist throws an empty gun through a man. * Together in Death: Ruriko and Toshiro * What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?: The sukiyaki in the opening scene. * Worthy Opponent: Yoichi claims to be searching for this his entire life and thinks he finds it in the protagonist.
