Takashi Miike, at last, completes the Dead or Alive series with this ultra-bizarre installment of man vs. man violence. Now set in the midrange future, it's the typical slow-mo violence we've come to expect from Miike (and some of the gun battles are extremely impressive and archly funny), but Miike's obsession with perverted sex and urination may turn off more viewers than he normally does. The ending, which features a robot/alien/monster with a giant penis for a head, will certainly get you talking. Maybe not in a good way, though...
