This film is far better than the hideous Tokyo Gore Police (2008) with its terribly poor production values. Besides the camera work, the sound, and the screenplay being so much better, there is even a bit of acting in Mutant Girls Squad. There were some borrowed pieces from the earlier film: breasts spewing acid, samurai style police garb, dismembered forearms used as intelligent projectiles.
Cinematography: 9/10 Sufficient light, clear focus, reasonable framing. Occasional jumpy camera work, and some fits of 90% of the screen being overexposed badly.
Sound: 8/10 Good enough. I can hear the actors, and the incidental music is not too irritating. The Foley for combat seems only a little exaggerated.
Acting: 5/10 Has its ups and downs.
Screenplay: 7/10 The plot progresses in a fairly connected fashion: shock to revenge to realization to rebellion to resolution.
Special Effects: 7/10 Lots of bright red blood splatter. Curious choices in CGI for dismembering bodies and slicing heads into layers. Bizarre tentacle rape, female mutant violating male soldier. Of course, the long sword up the reverse direction of the GI track is just as shocking. The nose guns on the anti-mutant soldiers were somewhat amusing, but not convincing.
