Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
One scarcely needs the subtitles to enjoy this colorful action farce.

rotten:
Like being trapped inside a huge video game, where exciting, inane images keep popping past your head and the same illogical things keep happening over and over again.

rotten:
Reno does what he can in a thankless situation, the film ricochets from humor to violence and back again, and Ryoko Hirosue makes us wonder if she is always like that.

fresh:
The film is a contrivance, as artificial as the video games Japanese teens play in a nightclub sequence, but it's an enjoyable one.

The movie fails to live up to the sum of its parts.
