Much of the dialogue and performances are stilted, but as a kitsch cult watch it has its charms.

Compellingly weird.

Times (UK)

Energetic and stylish, the film is part action, part detective story, with acrobatic set pieces punctuating a plot that is intricate without being complicated.

Radio Times

The slickly choreographed fight scenes and shoot-outs are sped up and slowed down, making for exhilarating spectacle.

Somewhere between Batman and The Crow, but not as good as either.

The Kuroshitsuji film that isn't a Kuroshitsuji film. How peculiar.
