| User ReviewAllen Oabsolute cinematic genius, a must for mamoru oshii fans, if you don't like inteligent thought provoking film then don't bother, |
| User ReviewLouis FFUCKING BRILLIANT. It's like, ok, wait for it, it's like Fellini, Cronenberg, Jan Svankmeyer,Terry Gilliam and Lars Von Trier all had a kid and raised him in Japan and then he made this movie. WATCH IT. I'll wait. |
| User ReviewPrivate UOn excellent film, pour comprenbd comment un film est fait. De la post-prod. au produit final. Oshii's est un des réalisateur les plus poétique de notre temps. |
| User ReviewM. KAnother of Oshii's more surreal offerings. Brilliant - that is, again, if you like this kind of film. Film students especially will be fascinated by it. Not to mention, it's hilarious. The part where Chiba reveals that the production manager has returned as a zombie due to his obsession with the job is priceless. |
| User Reviewjohn pAn uncomonly strange film. Feels almost like a dead serious version of Garth Merenghi's Dark Place. |
| User ReviewLain GAlmost more like theater than a "movie", more really great comedy, really slow pacing and really weird ideas from oshii! also, anyone know what that dog near the end of the movie is doing the Ghost in the Shell movies? |
| User ReviewRandi SStrange movie that is about making a movie. Too much of an insiders film for me. Why three stars? It is very funny in a dark way and the visuals are well done. |
