CGiii Comment

Japanese film is, almost wholly, an acquired taste.

Japanese comedy is a dish best served in Japan...to spotty Japanese teenagers.

Yes, it's colourful and bright, ludicrous and, ultimately SHITE.

Camp, immature trash with Vinnie Jones!!! You can't imagine how bad he is in this - money talks.


Trailer...

The(ir) Blurb...

A man continually trying and failing to get his wife to stay dead; a self-absorbed ad agency creative director who comes up with one unworkable inane idea after another; a British hitman who only wants to know everyone's function in life; and an unfortunate office worker and father whose brain is left scrambled after a stage hypnotist is murdered in mid-performance. Starting off as unrelated plot lines, they intertwine with each other as they continue on their respective ways.
