Sean Axmaker St@tic Multimedia Hayashi's jazzy style is at once both playful and serious, full of comic wit and lighthearted character comedy... Sep 15, 2005 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Man you just don't see movies this good enough these days! The whole Maiku Hama trilogy is a fantastic tribute to American Film Noir, far better than any of the "modern noir" that American cinema has churned out recently, but the film still manages to maintain a slightly acidic, but wholly enjoyable sense of humour. Fantastic! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
