It's a serious take on a very silly psuedo Sci-fi story, but surprisingly enjoyable, mostly because of Koji Yakusho.

No I haven't, I haven't gone out of my way to see it coz a m8 of mine (who has similar taste) thought it was shite, he thought Lorelei was very good.

You raise some interesting points. Thanks. Like HungFist, you are more Japanese than Japanese people.

There's another recent Japanese military film out cheapish on HK DVD: Yamato. Noel Megahy's going to be reviewing it for DVDtimes soon.
