Movie Reviews

Cinema em Cena - 9/10 by Pablo VillaçaA falta de coesão narrativa é mais do que compensada pelo visual marcante concebido por Suzuki, que cria uma fantasia psicodélica através da direção de arte estilizada, da fotografia com cores marcantes e da música-tema repetida continuamente.
Antagony & Ecstasy - 9/10 by Tim BraytonDistills the aesthetic of the 1960s into one feature-length blast.
Turner Classic Movies Online - 8/10 by Sean Axmaker...plays like a mix of spaghetti western and samurai melodrama relocated to the pop-art splendor of 1960s Japan...
Classic Film and Television - 7/10 by Michael E. GrostDelirious mix of musical and gangster film has spectacular design and color.
Espinof - 7/10 by Alberto AbuínA piece to worship that, even today, continues to challenge the viewer. [Full review in Spanish]
User Review - 10/10 by Christopher STokyo Drifter is a simply stunning piece of Japanese cinema. It is as falmboiant, outragous and comical as it can be. It is almost the polar opposite of what most think of when it comes to Japanese cinema. The soundtrack is also fantastic, featuring pop music of 1960s Japan. The style of the film is what will stick with you. The sets are odd colors and the lighting adds to the eccentricity. Even the wardrobe makes you think your television color is off. The film also features two (suprisingly lengthy) conversations about hair dryers which are two moments when you will keel over with laughter. For all the humor though, the film is still true to its yakuza roots; providing a riviting story about the Japanese underworld. It is a must see for any ciniphile or anyone interested in Japanese culture. If you don't fit into those two categories, I still strongly suggest this film because it is so different, that it will show what film can do in the hands of an artist, such as Suzuki.
User Review - 10/10 by Levi PA fine movie and a fine piece of art.And a very good soundtrack.I would recommend it to everyone who likes Filmnoir
User Review - 10/10 by Sam MIt's kind of the coolest movie ever made.
User Review - 10/10 by Jake PThe story doesn't always make total sense, but the visuals and the attitude more than make up for it. For fans of pure Japanese cinema, this is unmissable.
User Review - 10/10 by Joseph SWatched it twice and still not quite sure what happened, but the images are lodged in memory. Color filters, and color pallets, not to mention inky black and white, sequences make this a visual feast for the eyes in every frame. It's completely style over substance, which wont appeal to some, but it's hypnotic one of a kind film making, that still looks fresh. I could leave this on in the background on tv, all day and find something worth looking at in pretty much every scene. Bright, beautiful, and madcap action/comedy. Suzuki is a technicolor refreshment in a world of gritty pulp redundancy, basically the opposite of "Quantum of Solace".
