鬼才・鈴木清順監督最新作が早くもDVD化!江角マキコ&山口小夜子&永瀬正敏が繰り広げる極彩色のフィルム・ノワール!!

謎の殺し屋組織・ギルドでNo.3の殺し屋・野良猫は、代理人から殺しの依頼を受ける。ターゲットはNo.1の殺し屋・百眼だ。しかし誰も百眼の顔を知らない。ギルドの殺し屋が次々と消され、追い詰められた野良猫の元に、百眼からの招待状が届く。その場所は世界恐怖博覧会…。
鬼才・鈴木清順監督が日活を解雇され、不遇の時代を迎える切っ掛けとなった問題作「殺しの烙印」(1967年)のリメイクとも続編ともいえる、清順美学が凝縮した新感覚のフィルム・ノワール。個性的なキャストもさることながら、「平成ガメラ・シリーズ」の名コンビ・伊藤和典(脚本)&樋口真嗣(特撮)が参加するなど、新旧の一流スタッフが結集し一筋縄ではいかないエキサイティングな内容に仕上げている。強烈で斬新な映像美、誰も予想できないストーリー展開など、世界が待ち望んだ鈴木清順監督の会心作である。

Too artsy for me Customer Review Rated Bad 2 - 2 out of 10
Like any foreign film, word for word translations are difficult & you'd think this film would be better in it's original language but, by me being able to understand Japanese, it doesn't help all that much. If you're expecting intrigue or facinating fight/assasin assignment situations, you might as well look else where. If there was a sophisticated message with artsy fartsy symbolism in some of these confusing scenes, then my brain is pickled because I just didn't see it. If you're writing some philosophy, symbolism paper on this movie, forward me a copy I'd like to know what I'm missing.

Misunderstood Movie Customer Review Rated Bad 7 - 7 out of 10
I've seen a lot of reviews on a lot of websites for this movie and, quite frankly, it's not so bad as everyone had made it out to be! First off, don't go into this movie thinking it's going ot act as a sequel to Branded To Kill. It is loosely related, but definately not to be considered a sequel in my opinion. Also, this movie is very artsy and the dialouge is... interesting. So is the plot. The acting is good and the soundtrack is excellent. I enjoyed the film and would watch it again.

Ok at first... Customer Review Rated Bad 3 - 3 out of 10
This movie was ok at first, but it got way too artsy. Thiry minutes or so into it I thought I was watching a movie by a film school student. It would've been great if it had been kept simple and straightforward. This was the tale of an assassin(a damn good looking one) trying to get by in her trade and become the "Number 1" killer. I'm not sure how good the translation was, but the dialouge is mostly terrible. Some situations and moments made no sense(as well as some of the english spoken dialouge). Certain parts of the movie I felt I was watching a stage show. I left this movie thinking I could rewrite it to make it 10 times better. Rent this one if possible, I made the mistake of buying it.
