Bunraku (2010)
Directed by Guy Moshe
this action film stars Josh Hartnett, Woody Harrelson, Gackt, Ron
Perlman and Demi Moore. In a post apocalyptic future two strangers
arrive in a city run by a powerful crime boss and his gang of
killers.
Visually this film is
a crazy mish mash of styles that is certainly unique but I am not
sure the sum of all the various parts add up to anything more than
something that is trying too hard to be cool. The plot is pretty
bland and unoriginal, the less said about Demi Moore's role the
better as it does seem to indicate a slightly sexist attitude from
the writers. For once it was nice to see action sequences that did
not just decent into CGI over load but ultimately like the rest of
the film they are not enough to carry the piece.
2/5
