9/10
Does not leave anything to the imagination and is perfect for what it sets out to accomplish
13 June 2010
I wish I could have been prepared for this film, but in this case I went in totally unaware and was pretty shocked by what I ended up with. The only reason I wanted to see this movie because a lot of people labeled it as the goriest movie they have ever seen. After seeing it, I can not disagree. They manage to cram into every 5 minutes some form of blood, violence and carnage that you just are helpless to look away from. The gore is so intense in fact and the movie is just as bizarre as can be that I really could not come up with much gory features they didn't apply to this film. I was not expecting it to be a magnificently played out film in the long run.

Now as I just said, I did not give this movie such a high rating because of how well it was able to disturb me, which is what most people think viewers do with films like this. I loved it so much because of how amazing of a movie it actually ends up being. The characters are lovable and excellently executed, the plot is great and enticing, and the cheesiness and camp sense of the film is totally enjoyable. It creates this futuristic, chaotic atmosphere with these so called "engineers" who are able to change their wounds into deadly weapons. The engineers all turn out to be surprisingly cool and effective, and even though a lot of their weapons just totally grossed me out, I have to admit they were still awesome and were certainly different from a lot of other deadly weapons I have seen in films.

The movie has amazing actors and actresses who capture their characters remarkably and make them fit well into the story. It gets totally over the top at times, I mean extremely over the top, but that's exactly what I love so much about it. The sexual innuendo and grisly images give it it's edge along with being a completely astonishing film in the production, direction and overall execution of the story and characters as well, and every single aspect of this film just mixes together perfectly to give you this beautiful action film that is still able to utterly disgust you in every way to the point where you drool out the mouth at how insanely wonderful it really is.

Everyone who has seen and enjoyed this film knows what feeling I am talking about, but for those of you have not seen it, make sure instead of shutting your mind off actually open it up and you will be astonished at how well this movie manages to capture your attention and entertain. The main character is one of my favorite traits of this movie, for she was unable to hate and had that vengeful yet graceful attitude that most action film women tend to lack. The unexpected shocks like a gun penis and alligator vagina are really the only things that people might find a bit too much, but in the end I ended up completely enjoying Tokyo Gore Police for the over the top, brutal, shocking, brilliantly created movie that it is.
