What to Know

Critics Consensus

R100 definitely isn't for everyone, but audiences open to writer-director Hitoshi Matsumoto's fetish-driven thrills will find it a suitably perverse pleasure to watch.

Even if you like bizarre movies, you'll probably like "R100," then hate it, then go back to liking it, then wonder what you're looking at. And then the movie will end. Go to Full Review
Martin Tsai Los Angeles Times 01/22/2015
"R100" suggests that extreme and perverse films allow the everyman to seek thrills in his otherwise-monotonous life. Go to Full Review
J. R. Jones Chicago Reader 01/22/2015
Matsumoto works overtime to keep this vital once the basic premise has been established, but the cultural subtext is so potent that he really can't go wrong. Go to Full Review

The ones in on the joke are just going to clap their hands with glee. Go to Full Review
Pieter-Jan Van Haecke Psychocinematography 07/26/2021
Within the stylish composition, these subtle excursions of realism emphasize the very absurdity of what befalls our main character: Takafumi Katayama. Go to Full Review

Fans of Matsumoto are likely to be reeled in, but inexplicable twists and turns aggravate its intermittent flashes of interest. Go to Full Review

Nov 14 Really far away from what's the real BDSM world, looks like a delirant manga with the tipical exagerated charachter's moods. Perhaps a fantasy to explain another things of the human life in the suit of a middle-class man with a middle life, unsatisfied with he gots... until he begins to see everything which got in a risk to lose it. See more Jeffrey P 08/27/2024 One of the more demented films to ever captivate. It’s not quite the same level as The Human Centipede, but there are definitely some things you’ll wish you’d never seen. See more Rick R 06/07/2024 good acting, but I never got into this movie. See more 08/02/2022 A movie with interminable interpretations. Entertaining yet difficult to grasp. The character descended into sexual dissipation, and that much I understand. In actuality you can make no sense of what is actually happening, or the true meaning of the film as it heads into a bizarre outcome. See more 04/14/2021 The most illogical, bizarre movie I’ve seen to date. The movie eventually turns into sci-fi, with a Japanese-woman becoming an alien with an enormous mouth to eat humans with. If you’re like me, you probably said “what the fuck”after you read that last sentence. Maybe you’ll like this movie, however, that is only possible if you simultaneously like being spanked by tall, Japanese women with a BMI of 18.2. If you’re like the rest of us, this movie is beyond a waste of time. See more 06/26/2020 My wife and I love nonsensical movies but this one really takes the cake. We've seen the likes of Ichi the Killer, Trainspotting, Gozu, and other absolute mind-boggling movies but this film was beyond our scope of rational comprehension. It made us laugh hysterically but I still have no idea what this movie was about and I like it that way. See more Read all reviews
