The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

I read the hype about this film and bought it off ebay along with a bunch of other sweet movies I've been meaning to get. I agree it has that Pulp Fiction/Tarantino feel to it but it drags awkwardly in many places, and I feel some of the extraneous dialogue could have been dropped while still retaining the same quirky feel. Overall, I give this film 3.5 out of 5 stars and think its worth watching atleast once, and probably would have enjoyed it a lot more if I hadn't seen Attack the Gas Station, a Korean film, that has the same attitude of this film but executed it a lot better.

Very Strong acting, directing and script makes for one of my favorite films.An unlikely couple fall in love in this magical, funny, romantic, and sometimes violent film. Its heart is close to "Lola Rennt" or "True Romance" in a slightly funnier wrapping.( 9 out of 10 ) -Karl

Like a Japanese answer to Snatch, this film is EXCELLENT! Well crafted, shot, acted and developed, simply a delight of a ride to be on. The development from sequence to sequence is a model of solid storytelling without cheese gimmicks or overt style. The reveals, character turns and incident occasions are masterfully handled. Simply delightful!

Everything about this movie is great: funny dialogue, great action sequences, wonderful characters and superb camera-work throughout. One can see the director was influenced by Takeshi's movies: that is a compliment. Do not let the pace fool you, this is typical of Japanese moviemaking. Let's see them make movies like this in Hollywood: I don't think so.
