Tokyo Zombie is certainly a very unpredictable film, in a good way. It starts as a very acid zombie comedy, then about halfway it takes a Land of the Dead-twist, gets even more acid in the humour, and introduces some drama elements that just makes this a strange, but very rewardi...( read more)

Very dry, tongue-in-cheek humor throughout. The biggest laughs come in the last 10 minutes. Lots of fun for fans of the genre.

Hell yeah!!!! Now this is what you call all out fun!!! This movie is so freaking hilarious. The first thing I noticed though is the actor that played Kakihara in Ichi The Killer...that made it even better for me. But this movie is so cheesy and fun and I loved every minute of it....( read more)

There were several moments while I was watching that I found myself laughing hysterically at this and then there were many times I found myself scratching my head at how bad and unfunny this was. The jokes were so hit and miss and most of them missed. It was as if they were tryin...( read more)

A lot of fun with some great laughs and a good storyline. Not to mention a great cast as well. However, it does take a good while to really get interested in the film. Once you get to the second half of the film, the things in the first half do play into the second half and the f...( read more)
