Izo...oh geez


Oh, Izo, I'd been looking forward to seeing you for a couple of months. You were directed by Takashi Miike and you had 'Beat' Takeshi. And then you pulled a sword from your vagina and stabbed me.

Maybe I'd had too much to drink, maybe I'm just not smart enough, maybe it just wasn't very good, but Izo bordered on unwatchable. Not because it was graphic or obscene, just because it made no sense. Izo bordered on being a waste of 2 hours. That's about the worst thing I can say about a movie, that it was a waste of time. On a scale of Shaun of the Dead to House of the Dead, it ranks House of the Dead.

Read a review from someone who "gets" it if you want.
