"...a more complete understanding of this film by non-Japanese critics is essential" -- Coffee, Coffee... "The film's meshing of contemporary elements with a period setting is oddly compelling" -- Twitch Film "The film carries Gosha’s signature style, of a long slow burn leading up to an explosive finish..." -- Japan Reviewed
