CGiii Comment

This is a shoestring production and a thoroughly irresponsible film - the jury is out as to its importance.

The self-important Araki certainly thinks the importance is undisputed.

However, the dialogue is a lowlight. The direction: dim.

And, the ending, which is its only saving grace, didn't come soon enough.
