What are critics saying?
The New York Times by Dana Stevens
A breathless dash to nowhere in particular, doesn't feel bad.
Exceedingly slow setup and even more tediously static sequence that effectively terminates the movie well before its official running time.
Give this Japanese import points for originality, but not much else.
Fresh, fast and funny movie.
San Francisco Chronicle by Mick LaSalle
Never rises above the level of its gimmick.
Sabu takes an already wildly original concept and launches it toward brilliance.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer by Sean Axmaker
A reminder of the offbeat comic sensibility and visceral charge that marked him (Sabu) as a director to watch.
Philadelphia Inquirer by Steven Rea
Hip, stylish, funny.
San Francisco Examiner by Wesley Morris
Simply an endurance contest, one almost worth staying the 82 minutes to see who wins.
