What a delightful and complete surprise coming out of Takashi Miike! The first part of the movie is hilarious. I was thinking it would look like this if Herzog and Kinski were accidentally cast as the two protagonists in a Takashi Yakuza movie!
At the end, I decided that this film is very Fellini...
