Audience Member More than anything, detective story for me is a tribute to Dario Argento and his cinematography, with a stronger sense of humour and a sweeter (yet terryfing) stroke on characters personalities: as an Italian, I feel honoured and can say only Arigato Gozaemasu. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Nothing special here. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member An entertaining watch, some gory and creepy moments as you can expect with a Miike movie. It's really more of a comedy. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Oh Takashi Miike, i had forgotten how whimsical and brilliantly silly and fun you could be right in the middle of your shock, blood and guts! In fact, i had nearly given up on you after Sukiyaki Western Django on '07! looks like i have some catching up to do! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Detective Story is not one of Takashi Miike's great films, but it is a relatively enjoyable mash-up of buddy cop comedy and serial killer brutality. Its main problem is that it can't decide whether it wants to be a drama or a comedy. This makes for some of its schizophrenic charm, but it also detracts from a film that could have become great under Miike's direction. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member takashi miike! He is the best in japanese horror Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
