Perfect Blue

You can read my review of the film here.








   Pros

- Great atmosphere. Tension is built well and the psychological elements are perfectly executed.
-  This is a mind screw done right.  It isn't nonsensical just for the sake of doing so, it serves a purpose and leads to a much better payoff as a result.
- Great plot twists that constantly keep you guessing what's going on.  Nothing feels superfluous in that front and the viewer is more engaged as a result.

Cons

-The voice acting on the dub can leave quite a bit to be desired.  Similarly, dialogue can be clunky, but it does improve as the film moves on.
- I was amused by all the early internet dialogue.  It couldn't be helped, but looking at it now can be rather humorous.
-DVD is quite pricey, for what it's worth, the movie is really, really good.
