      Philip De Semlyen Time Out Fans of visceral, cynical action movies will lose their heads over it. Rated: 4/5 May 25, 2023 Full Review Siddhant Adlakha indieWire The eye-popping, blood-soaked vistas are a marvelous sight, as are its handful of striking moments of queer samurai imagery. However, Kitano’s tale of ambition and beheadings loses nearly all momentum in its second half. Rated: C+ May 23, 2023 Full Review Damon Wise Deadline Hollywood Daily Kitano’s new movie Kubi promises to do the same for samurai movie [as he did for the yakuza genre], and the bad news is that, though it really, really tries, it just doesn’t pull it off. Nov 14, 2023 Full Review Sarah Manvel Critic's Notebook Sometimes a person is just in the mood to see everyone die. When a work of art manages to go so far over the top that it comes around again, it’s astounding. And say what you will about “Kubi,” there isn’t a single dull second in it. Jun 10, 2023 Full Review Carlos F. Heredero Caimán Cuadernos de Cine Kubi presents itself with all the regalia typical of the great historical frescoes filmed by Akira Kurosawa. [Full review in Spanish] Jun 2, 2023 Full Review Zach Gayne ScreenAnarchy In remembering the many peaks of Kubi, of which I found no shortage, my mind again goes to the ninja raconteur who after every performance asks his audience to throw money his way if they laughed. If Kitano were in front of me, I’d throw him much yen. Jun 1, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
