  Ok, not awful but flawed, not Leon.
  
  This is a film which is easy to compare to things like Leon or The Boondock Saints. It fuses animated and live action sequences fairly well, establishing the ... read more »

  The revenge drama is all the rage these days and this film is not much different to any others. The references to Fight Club & Oldboy are obvious but ... read more »

  This is gut wrenching at times. It uses animation as it would be un-watchable on film at some points. deals with child abuse so please be warned if your ... read more »

  Nice idea
  
  The idea of the film was ok, but it's just not executed very well and the animated characters are far better at acting than the real thing!

  This is not a slur on the film, more like an admission that I didn't look at the details properly.
