DEAD LEAVES (2004)

Dead LeavesPositive Experience/Entertaining?? Hell yeah! However, the frenetic pace was a bit much at times.
Technically any good? Well, the animation is so bizarro and the story so vague and twisted (on purpose) it's hard to judge this movie based on technical merits. However, I can say that the I got fatigued pretty fast thanks to the literal non-stop crazy-ass action. Luckily, the movie is only 45 minutes (or so).
How did it leave me feeling? Tired, but enthused. It has one of those annoying anime-style endings that leaves you asking yourself "what was THAT all about?" However, the film makes up for it in other ways. *THIS IS NOT A CARTOON FOR KIDS!*
Final Rating? SIYL (frenetic, extreme violence, limited nudity and sexual situations--including a mutant with a giant drill for a penis!)
