An absolute waste of money

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

It's always hard to class a film that stands at 45 minutes as a "Short" I always consider shorts to be no more than half of that! Regardless here we are a Japanese revenge short which actually isn't half bad.Instead of going down the traditional weird Asian route they go down the gory one in a similar vein to Tokyo Gore Police (2008) just somewhat tamer.Telling the story of Milly, a woman butchered by a gang as she watched her husband and baby murdered who with some "Modifications" goes after those responsible.Hard Revenge Milly doesn't bring anything new to the table but what it does bring it does really quite well.This short was followed up the next year by a full length sequel and I'm looking forward to see what they did with it.The Good: Cast/characters are solid Action scenes are well done The Bad: Because of it's limited time it doesn't feel as fleshed out as perhaps it should Things I Learnt From This Movie: After disembowelling enemies it's tradition to cook their flesh before departing

Its difficult to call Hard Revenge Milly a movie as it only runs 45mins. The best way I can describe it is ... a live action, anime episode...The plot line is very simple, in the near future, Tokyo have been turned into a post apocalyptic wasteland. A family is brutally killed by a gang of thugs. The survivor, Milly, seeks vengeance on the killers.So the movie shows her killing 4 of the gang members. Thats it, no plot or character developments, no explanation on what happened to Tokyo, no explanation on how she survived or have a gun as a leg.The gore isn't much, just spurting blood. If you are into gore it will be a disappointment as it is very tame stuff. A cut and blood spurts, thats it. The final action sequence is not bad and is probably the saving grace for this film.If you are into the genre, its worth a watch. If not, then avoid.

The gore is over the top in this one...and pressurized to one hundred and fifty psi. It is set in a post apocalyptic wasteland of the cheapest outdoor sets that the producer could find. The usual crazed over the top post-apocalyptic gangsters run this wasteland. Milly, a woman best described as angry and bionic is seeking revenge in this wasteland.The fight scenes in this low-budget digital film are pretty good, well choreographed with lots of fun new ways to lacerate someone. Miki Mazuno is gorgeous, even though she looks as if she doesn't want to be. I guess the movie can best be described as a female Japanese Max Max.If gore-effects don't make you queasy, this can be a fun movie; and, at a run-time of less than fifty minutes, you probably won't have to get up in the middle of the movie for a bathroom break...

I had watched this movie at a friends house but after viewing it i had to go and order it online. i think this movie is truly phenomenal. it's definitely apart of the over the top blood/gore fest that has been popular in japan as of late. However unlike the others like tokyo gore police or machine girl. the lead character has a much stronger personality as well as motivation for her actions. also, the fight scenes done by the female heroine are top notch and do not scream fake like the other films I've mentioned. the movie is basically about a young woman who was horrible wronged by a gang of hoodlums who ravaged her body and killed her family. she goes on a quest for revenge that is a action fan like myselfs ultimate dream. full of blood & amazing choreography.so if you liked machine girl or tokyo gore police i definitely recommend this film.
