Not really spoiler alert as this scene is really out of context. [video=youtube;V42UhZsei6k]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V42UhZsei6k[/video] I really like this movie, especially in the use of colors particularly red.
I didn't like the film in the sense of a narrative but this film is extremely beautiful when it comes to cinematography. It's amazing. FUN FACT: The asian guy Ryan Gosling is fighting, the director whispered into his ear when directing him: "[sp]You are God[/sp]
i still need to watch this, that was pretty gnarly

Like how he forgives Ryan at the end for killing his family, hence only God forgives. He's also pretty much untouchable throughout the whole movie, anyone that goes against him get absolutly pummeled.[/sp]
Whenever i see the title of this movie i get reminded of this: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GTGl6r8-nI[/media]

There's plenty of evidencein the movie to support this in addition to the fact that he's never injured in the slightest.[/sp]

I saw the movie when it was screened at the munich film festival with Nicolas Winding Refn giving an introduction. When the interviewer asked him what to expect from the movie he said "If Drive was like doing really good Coke, then Only god forgives is like dropping really good acid". The interviewer then pointed out that he had no experience with drugs and if there was another way to describe it and then the answer was "like really, REALLY good acid" and he kept repeating that line every time he was asked about the movie. Also I love the last shot with Julian lying there and the red fighter statue subtly visible through the door in the background above him. Open for interpretation
I thought it was a fantastic movie btw deffinately good discussion fuel. [sp]When Julians mother is killed the director asked Ryan if he thought Julian would kiss his mother on the head and Ryan said no, they shot the scene and Ryan placed his hands inside of his mother I guess he figured Julian is so fucked up its something he would do[/sp]
