A has-been samurai movie star takes unfair advantage of the loyalty of one of his devoted fans in this Japanese comedy-drama. The star uses the fan's help to escape a number of sticky situations and eventually hatches a plan to use them as a double during a dangerous stunt. ~ Judd Blaise, Rovi

Pablo Villaca, Cinema em Cena
Homenageando a cinematografia japonesa através de um bom exercício metalinguístico, o filme conta também com ótimas atuações (especialmente de Matsuzaka, lindíssima) e um desfecho inteligente.

It falls into the category of comedies that just aren't funny and are so unfunny, they're almost perplexing.

Matt Bailey, Not Coming to a Theater Near You
I have seen a lot of strange, bizarre movies in my day, but Kinji Fukasaku's 1982 comedy Fall Guy is among the strangest.
