Based on the classic 70's anime series, this big-screen, live-action adaptation of Yatterman tells the story of Gan Takada, a boy with a knack for all things mechanical, and Ai Kaminari, a girl with a quick wit. When a serious bad guy discovers a sure-fire method for taking over the world, Gen and Ai find themselves on a mission to save the universe, with the help of many wild costumes and powerful, fighting robots (official distributor synopsis)

Takashi Miike once again shows what a madman he is and how he can hone his films to visual perfection. This is so out there that you probably won't even like it, but if you're even remotely into Japanese craziness, you'll be in absolute bliss. Even for me this was a bit much, but I still enjoyed the film immensely.
