Such a frustrating disappointment

... View MoreI was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.
... View MoreMostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.
... View MoreI bought this one real cheap, i thought why the hell not. I enjoyed The Machine Girl, Tokyo Gore Police and Mutant Girl Squad, i even liked Helldriver which was a chaotic mess. In my opinion Gothic Lolita Psycho just didn't work out, first of all the whole thing is completely ripped off from Tarantino's Kill Bill (and sucks at it). You get this girl dressed up as a goth in a completely over the top style, who starts killing off a couple of nut jobs who killed her mother (you'll figure out at the end of the movie) one by one. Most of these so called killers act plain idiotic, for example you get a perverted teacher who flies through the air armed with a mob. And a psychotic schoolgirl wearing a eyepatch who talks like a baby, it might be fun for those who enjoy rediculous over the top behaviour but it just annoyed the hell out of me. Don't get me wrong i enjoy watching japanese crazyness, but this production just failed. yes there's gore. Not the rediculous amounts you get to see in Tokyo Gore Police, but it's decent. Dismembered limbs, squirting fountains of blood. Crushed bodies etcetera, but it just didn't caught my attention. It just looked like they didn't try hard enough to make something good, what also bothered me was a huge plothole. There's no background history of the killers, you never get to know how they met eachother. Or why they teamed up to commit the murder, believe me. There are better japanese or any other asian splatter movies to watch then this crapfest.

Yuki manages to kill one by one his mother vanishes and only one person lives for Yuki to wipe .. Will Yuki manage to take his revenge? This movie is so exciting that I who watch this movie do not want to miss a scene of sadistic Yuki fight and enemy enemy is so fun. The scene of action is so fond ... There is a lot of blood, gore and all the cruelty of this movie ...
... View MoreThis movie is not logical. This movie is not challenging your intellect. This movie does not want you to think too much about it. This movie gives you exactly what the title offers, nothing more. I think it "borrowed" a lot from Kill Bill, for example certain fighting moves or villain character traits. (Actually, my first thought was Tarantino had seen this movie and decided to make a western, a little more serious version. Then I noticed this was the more recent production.) The story seems a little similar too. I'm not saying that there IS much of a story here. In fact, I expected the story to be nonsense, but not to be that incomplete. Still, it was fun to watch, and had me constantly ask myself whether is was entertaining because it was so creative or just because of its plain stupidity. It is one of those movies I'm not able to judge by the standards of "good" or "bad". If you like goth style and anime-like over-the-top action sequences, you will be entertained. (I was.) Just don't expect anything else.
... View MoreIf you are looking for a film that has a lot of plot development, develops characters really well and has a story that makes you think then please skip this film. It does none of these things, what it does do is move by quickly from one fight to the next with a bit of back story here and there to fill in the blanks a bit. Not entirely as I was still clueless about a couple of things at the end of this one. The story is simple, a girl whose mother was killed by a strange quintet of people clad in black robes is out for revenge against said individuals. The thing that sets her apart from the normal revenge seeking girl is her choice of attire and weapon. She dresses in a Gothic Lolita outfit and uses various parasols as her weaponry. You get to see her do her thing right off the bat as she raids a gambling den and proceeds to really decimate all of those within seeking the strange mistress of the place. I was thinking at this point that we would get this scene then have a whole lot of flashbacks detailing her change to this psycho goth, but we only get a small picture and then she is off to a school to take care of her next target. Good action, I enjoyed the fight scenes better in this one than in other films of this type such as Vampire Girl versus Frankenstein Girl, Machine Girl and Tokyo Gore Police. The gore is about the same as those films, I still give the edge to this one cause it moved by so quickly was not crammed with a bunch of back story on her transformation and it did not have those strange bits of humor such as wrist cutting. While it does poke fun at things, the odd humor does not get placed front and center. My main complaints is that you really do not get enough of an idea why the girl's mother was killed in the first place. Also, while her outfit was cute I was hoping to see more outfits than just the one. Overall, I found it to be a nice bloody and fast moving revenge action/horror film.
