Get it on (and off)

Well let's be clear: this is as silly as it gets. If you are looking for sophisticated humor, look elsewhere. You won't find it here. The premise is to get laid (which the international title hints at to say the least). But from that we kind of get to quite a different place. Even if there is a callback - is it sufficient and will it hold your attention though? Something to be determined by everyone who wants to watch or is watching.Kitano does know how to do films, but he is not just one thing. This is closer to Takeshis castle rather than his Yakuza movies - then again there is some of that in here too. And be it just the random appearance with "gifts" from one of his regulars. This is quite out there and most often than not does not hit the right note. But it is up to the taste of the viewer to determine how funny he thinks certain things are ... many references to other comedies and also to "The Fly" included .... mix in some good old Godzilla "jokes" and you have ... mayhem!

the unknown Kitano is unleashed!!!!

Takeshi Kitano is worldwide known because of his violent movies such as Brother, Hana-bi, Violent Cop, etc. However in Japan is the other way around, he is mostly known by his comedy tv shows or duo-comedy shows (the two beats), where he got the name "Beat".Minna Yatteruka! could be Kitano's masterpiece in comedy, but still very difficult to import. At least, Image has released in Hong Kong and USA the DVD of Minna Yatteruka (getting any?) with English subtitles, and we've been able to see the unknown Kitano in a hilarious movie.First of all, I have to say that I've seen all Kitano movies, even Dolls, and this movie has nothing to do with them, it's a completely different story, has more to do with tv shows he directed like Takeshi's Castle.So, the movie is just astonishing, it comes from the most stupid situation and developes through gag to gag. One hour and a half of cinema parody fullfiled with Japanese Manga stupidity. The rhythm of the movie is slow, very slow at some points for a comedy, but it's still a good movie. I found parodies from his other yakuza movies, Ultraman, even the gohstbusters! and I'm sure I missed a lot.Overall Review: A very funny movie, a fresh product, but might be too weird for the general audience. So, if you are interested in the Japanese culture, in Kitano, or if you are openminded for new experiences in comedy, check for it, unless , discard it and look for American Pie.

Wacky...

Not my favourite Takeshi movie but then he did make so many good ones so it's hard to pick. This one has a more scattershot approach and it also goes on a bit too long; the yakuza material around the middle part feels stretched and repetitive as a result. What starts out as a wacky sex comedy becomes more and more wacky as it goes on, leading to spoofs of various film genres as well as the Japanese film industry in and of itself. Quite unlike anything I've seen, even other Takeshi films.
