    Everything almost gels, but not quite (maybe all of the jokes got lost in the translation). Lots of wackiness, but none of it connects in an interesting way. If you're looking for violence, there's not really that much of it. Dull in spots.

    Insane, hilarious, bloody as heck, attention-deficit tongue-in-cheek action movie that makes a movie like Snatch look tame.

    The plot is muddy and quite beside the point. The almost meditative mood takes center stage.

    The film is filled with Miike's brand of imaginatively staged violence and hints of fetish sexuality, but his sadism, which reaches its apotheosis in 2001's sickening "Ichii The Killer", is tempered by a sincere romanticism and a number of lovely touches.
  3. Miike's graphically violent Japanese actioners are not everyone's cup of sake. But if you can handle the bloodshed, Miike's films will open your eyes to the number of ways it can spurt, splat, and drizzle out of a whole variety of natural human orifices and man-made bullet holes.
