The nearly two-hour run time starts to feel like a concert where the hype men won't get off the stage.
There's a strange power to Sion's filmmaking that goes beyond the midnight-movie oddness of the plot. He likes the silly and the strange, but he has the style of a Spielberg; he can work wonders with a camera and make the dumbest ideas work.
It's as if the American hip-hop culture has been fully lost in Japanese translation and skewed as something cartoonish.
It's an infectiously over-the-top and unquestionably idiosyncratic mess, but it only holds together for as long as you're impressed by its commitment to an admittedly novel premise.
The cumulative effect ... is numbing.
The novelty factor fades midway through, and not even the bizarre sight of a (computer-generated) tank rolling down the streets and bombing buildings could really sustain or amplify the flagging energy of it all.
