| CitysearchDan FazioOshii's layered use of the Red Riding Hood story is both clever and chilling. |
| User ReviewAndrew HVery well done. From the sound of the guns to the Grimm tale references, this is a move I always feel like watching. |
| User ReviewTim CFantasic animation. Deep interesting story. I loved the whole thing about Fuse falling in love with Kei and being obessed with her because of her likening to Nanami from the sewers (for whose death he feels responsible for). Such a sad ending. |
| User ReviewAaron LThis is probably by far, the best adaptation of Mamoru Oshii's own manga, without so much of the pretentious/non-linear/absurdist directing that The Red Spectacles and Stray Dog: Kerberos Panzer Cops fell victim to... an excellent entry to The Kerberos Saga. |
| User ReviewToby HI guess there is much review and much more that can be said about the complexity and compelling perspective in this story - which onset is so seemingly simple yet less obvious. Defiantly something the mature minded of people with an understanding to appreciate the artistic efforts and detail gone into every frame. |
| User ReviewBob BChilling, cerebral political thriller isn't forgiving to it's audience or it's characters. Might take a few viewings to actually understand what the hell is going on. Looks almost like a silent film. |
| User ReviewMarcus MI don't think I've ever been so intimidated by a childhood fairytale gone awry... |
| User ReviewBrian MOne of the few feature animes actually worth watching. |
| User ReviewJeremy PIts only in the tales humans tell where the hunter gets the wolf. |
| User ReviewJohn the revelatorSome may not like the film but I loved it story and all and also its actually part of a series of films set in the same universe (the other two are red spectacles and stray dogs) |
