    we found this film to be in one word hopless you spend more time reading the subtitles than watching the film (no i did not realise it was subtitled at the time of ordering}

    Interesting but an acquired taste

    Enjoyed the film which had good, but not great, special effects. Storyline was a bit predictable but it flowed nicely.

    Must be a cultural thing as the humour was poor or maybe it did not translate well into the subtitles. Mainly seaside postcard stuff so it could be me.

    Worth watching as a mix of manga animation and real action but not a classic.
