Bullet Ballet Original Trailer (Shinya Tsukamoto, 1998)

This movie was just so fucking cool

I saw a particularly dark print of this at a little theater in Japan when it came out. It left a huge impression. Tsukamoto's most accessible film, I'd say. Great soundtrack as usual.

Yeah

"omg the protagonist is literally me"

I bought this japanese 🇯🇵 movie on DVD this week and watched it yesterday.
It's actually awesome and powerful 😺👍.

another Japanese movie made by shinya tsukamkto again !

夢だよゆーめ

What happened to the 4k version of this trailer?

don't bother restoring Shinya's films. They are supposed to look like this(old and worn out )

I've always thought this film was so underrated. It has not the cult status of the most notorious films of Tsukamoto, maybe for not being surrealistic like other of his movies, but this one is probably the best written and telled as a linear story of them all. Another favorite of mine from Tsukamoto sensei is Kotoko.

Used to buy Tetsuo I/II and Tokyo Fist/Bullet Ballet in the 2000's, the 4th are good movies, but Bullet Ballet always had my preference, then Tokyo Fist, as the 2 movies let more space to characters, while the 2 Tetsuo were less about a real scenario

One of the first live-action Japanese DVDs I bought (the ArtsMagic edition) when I was first getting into more contemporary non-jidaigeki/chambara Japanese cinema. Tsukamoto and this film in particular will always hold a special place to me.

Man, no wonder this trailer felt like something from the Tetsuo movies...it’s the same dude lol
