Set in the present where a group of ruthless gangsters, an unknown woman and an escaped convict have met, unwittingly, in The Forest of Resurrection, the 444th portal to the other side. Their troubles start when those once killed and buried in the forest come back from the dead, with the assistance of the evil Sprit that has also come back, come back from ages past, to claim his prize. The final standoff between Light and Dark has never been so cunning, so brutal and so deadly. This is where old Japanese Samurai mysticism meets the new world of the gangster and the gun. Gruesome, bloody and positively bold. There are 666 portals that connect this world to the other side. These are concealed from all human beings. Somewhere in Japan exists the 444th portal.... The forest of resurrection. The idiocy of popular opinion never ceases to amaze me. Just when I think the general public's taste in film couldn't get any worse, I see Ryuhei Kitamura repeatedly thrown under the bus. It's no understatement to say that the sheer abuse this guy takes is both unreasonable and unwarranted. It's become perfectly obvious that most viewers are simply too pompous, stuck up, or clueless to enjoy Kitamura's better films.

"Versus" is a prototypical example of getting the most out of a shoestring budget, a success that is perhaps eclipsed only by Shinya Tsukamoto's "Tetsuo: The Iron Man" (1989). Take any popular commercial director, chuck them in a forest with a camera and a bunch of no-name actors and see what happens. In almost every instance you'd get an absolute disaster. Most directors lack the ability to make something out of nothing. The mere fact that "Versus" kicks a$$ is enough, in and of itself, to solidify Kitamura's place as one of the most resourceful filmmakers of modern times.

Regardless of budget limitations, this is a highly entertaining movie. Yes, the acting is mediocre and the storyline is simplistic, but Kitamura's camera-work is better than almost any director alive today. The action scenes in "Versus" are driven by exceptional camera placement. The riverbed fight and the final sword duel are two cases in point, as the character movements are given a high energy feel through a shifting of camera angles. The physical limitations of the actors are indiscernible because they are effectively portrayed as proficient in combat. Most filmmakers lack the talent to pull this off, but given the fact that Kitamura is a genius behind the camera, it's no surprise that such techniques work very well here. This is not your typical Hollywood style of amateurish hyper-editing, because in "Versus" you can actually identify the characters' specific movements.

As I've pointed out in my previous review of "Sky High" (2003), Kitamura has an uncanny ability of applying ultra stylish camera-work and scoring to trivial events to make them twice as enjoyable. Take the opening confrontation between the yakuza and escaped prisoners. The movement of the camera is exceptional and the soundtrack is catchy, spicing up an otherwise filler scene. I've been lectured on multiple occasions that "directors shouldn't spin the camera around actors", but this pretentious rule (probably concocted by some old fart at AFI) is a worthless criticism that artificially limits creativity. Most interestingly, Christopher Nolan used this "forbidden" shot during the fundraiser scene in "The Dark Knight" (2008), but I have yet to see anyone slam him for it. Seems like a case of selective criticism to me. There's simply nothing wrong with using it.

As if arbitrary movie-making "rules" weren't bad enough, some of the negative comments for "Versus" on this site are beyond ridiculous. If "Versus" is the worst film you've ever seen, rest assured that you're a victim of your own ignorance. Go watch "Pistol Opera" (2001) or "Kill Devil" (2004), then come back and apologize.

If Kitamura's films are "too long" and "boring" for you, it's time to take a hard look at your personal rack of dvds, which will most likely expose your own hypocrisy. My blood boils when hearing people blather about Kitamura's dullness, especially considering how many of these same reviewers will kindly sit through Peter Jackson's 3-hour torture sessions with half a dozen superfluous endings tacked on one after the other. Kitamura never comes close to that level of bloated pretentiousness. Sure, the latter half of "Versus" acts as a calm before the final storm, and much of the visual/audio techniques are applied to lull the viewer into a state of tranquility (almost like those "Pure Moods" cds). This may provoke a bit of drowsiness, but that's a fairly minor qualm to be made. If anything, Kitamura's patience to capture the natural settings is a positive.

In terms of mood, "Versus" is a very light-hearted and playful film despite the bloody violence that's presented. With quotes like "I was trained at FBI headquarters in Langley" and "I grew up in Yellowstone National Park in Canada", one should not take this film too seriously. (Though most American viewers are probably too dim-witted to understand why these statements are funny to begin with.) The love interest has some laughable moments too, like when she finally dodges her hubby's knockout shot. Most notably, the sword-wielding gun-toting zombies are beyond hilarious. Make no mistake. This is an over-the-top action/horror movie that never takes itself too seriously.

That said, art-house snobs could never appreciate a film such as this regardless of how well it's executed. Hence my use of "pompous" and "stuck up" as adjectives in my opening paragraph. But what about the remaining detractors who I refer to as "clueless?" Well, that would refer to your typical mainstream cinophile who could never enjoy a film with a budget less than a few million dollars. It's depressing when one realizes that most moviegoers are clueless, while much of the remainder are pompous, arrogant, or simply have no taste. That leaves a relatively small piece of the pie to be respected. No wonder then, that Kitamura will never get the acclaim he so rightfully deserves.

To not like "Versus" may be due to poor taste in film, but at least you can redeem your worth by watching and enjoying "Sky High" and "Azumi" (2003), which are two of the most enjoyable Japanese films ever made. To dislike those is a sign of lunacy. I rented this movie for a "Bad Movie Night", as it was my turn to pick the movies, and it seemed like it would be a good, campy, fun "bad" movie. Little did I know I was actually getting a bona-fide bad movie. The "runt", whom everyone seems to love, was one of the worst characters I have ever had the misfortune to watch on screen, though he was almost outclassed by the "crazy" guy. I guess slapstick idiocy is what passes for decent acting these days. Wonderful lines such as: "unfortunately for you, I'm a feminist!", along with its dramatic camera work and music, served to wonderfully highlight the overall badness of the film. We had to turn it off halfway through. We managed to sit through all of Jesus Christ: Vampire Hunter, and we have struggled through several Kevin VanHook films, but we couldn't finish Versus. It was THAT bad. Kitamura created a so-called Ultimate edition of his movie and put in some new CGI effects, some more action sequences, changed the soundtrack and the colour filters. Unfortunately not. In comparison to the original Japanese Version the R-Rated version misses out several violent scenes that are featured in the uncensored version. 646f9e108c
