But is it art? Anime in the 'post-cinematic' age

The past 15 years have seen a boom in academic studies of anime, ranging from thematic and cultural analysis such as Susan J.

Ryosuke Hashiguchi's inspired drama about love and loss

Watching recent Japanese films, I often have the feeling that their makers need an imagination injection, or simply need to get out more. It's not just that few, especially at the commercial end of the spectrum, work from original scripts. Plenty of great movies are adapted from other media.

Sarik Andreasyan's thriller 'American Heist' falls short

'American Heist" is a bad movie with a glorious title. Think of the notables with "American" as a topper: "American Sniper," "American Beauty," "American Hustle," even "American Horror Story" had its merits. But "American Heist" takes a good, functional concept and turns it on its backside, not to mention...

Perfume hits the big screen in new documentary about touring overseas

It would be giving techno-pop trio Perfume's new documentary film "We Are Perfume — World Tour 3rd Document" too much credit to say that it shows the struggles of touring abroad. Aside from a mishap regarding a busted LED screen in Los Angeles, that is.

Cary Joji Fukunaga's 'Beasts of No Nation' challenges audience perceptions in both content and delivery

There was a time when the term "straight-to-video" conjured up images of cheap, low-quality sequels and B-movie knock-offs, inevitably featuring the likes of Jean-Claude Van Damme and Steven Seagal, and destined to line the shelves of video rental stores without ever making it to the vaunted window display....

Killing time at the Tokyo International Film Festival

Covering a film festival can turn anyone into a stickler for scheduling. Key screenings and Q&A sessions always seem to overlap and priorities collide. Do you stick with the stodgy Japanese biopic that you're supposed to be writing about, or sneak out halfway through to go watch something more entertaining?...

Women are in trouble at the Tokyo International Film Festival

Bad things can happen to good women, especially in the movies. For me, the most intriguing films at TIFF this year feature women in trouble. Yes, men may be a lot harder to take down on-screen than women — requiring explosives, monsters and extremely fit assassins — but, in reality, girls are more...

Rare orchids and misfit sex workers at the Tokyo International Film Festival

Some of the hottest tickets at TIFF each year are for films that have already secured a commercial release date in Japan.
