The "international" footprint is written all over this one. Had it been purely a Japanese production it could have been great as it had so much potential. Such a letdown in this one. Rent it first. Don't buy it.

sono's korine movie, take from that what you will. PSI of 3 made me laugh, definitely an algorithm-breaker if ever i saw one.

I have no idea if the English dialogue (which is just 2 hours of variations on "LET'S FUCKING GOOOOO") is intentionally shitty, and it kicks ass.

Japanese punk takes Manhattan. Seems to be about a familiar preoccupation of this filmmaker, namely the need to leave where you are to find out who you are, and tries hard to add pathos in the last few scenes, but everything is a little too ragged and unpleasant to really work. Twenty-five years after OUT OF THE BLUE (and after THE LONG RIDERS, mentioned here, both premiering in Cannes in 1980), this doesn't really cut it. No significant female characters (let alone a Linda Manz) doesn't help.
