Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
A wonder of magpie postmodernism, a samurai adventure with Hong Kong action and a wry touch of American Western, all sewn into a free interpretation of Gallic history that also has its finger on the pulse of current social trends.

rotten:
Instead of fluid acrobatics, we get hyperbolic montages of kicking feet, somersaulting torsos, and fists connecting with faces.

Fun movie, animatronic beast and all.

Exhilirating viewing, at least while the feet are flying and the fangs are baring.

fresh:
Utterly preposterous but so full of enthusiasm and flashy style that it's entertaining anyway.
