This is one of those Japanese movies that is so bad it's good or passable or so bad that it's awful. In this case it's alright. Sure the CGI and action scenes look so fake but it's not distracting for a movie like this and adds to the humor of it all. The fight choreography is designed by the team that did "Versus" which isn't really a good movie but a passable one as well. Everything about this movie is just plain wacky and cartoon like and to a degree it works. But the makers of this flick knows what direction it's trying to go. And it's a far from serious one. It's obvious they just mixed in their wacky vision with a shoe string budget. And to some degree it's amusing and that is what this flick is. It's a amusing action packed violent flick. Just when some parts seem predictable it goes in a amusing wacky direction that is humorous. Even the action is unpredictable and has shock factor to it. The protagonist is likable for a selfish conceited obnoxious yakuza as well and is a badass. And the guy can take a beating and when I say beating means can take a hit from a RPG. And his sidekicks are likable as well. Overall if you like movies like "Machine Girl" and such with bunch of wacky scenarios that doesn't make much sense and a lot of violent action that is over the top. You just might enjoy this one. I didn't have much expectation for this flick but my enjoyment factor elevated as the movie progressed.
