Battle Girl: The Living Dead in Tokyo Bay Audience Reviews

Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
Rexanne It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Thy Davideth Battle Girl is an example of what I look for in a movie: Dark, somber, slow paced, low produced, gritty, absurd, stylish and imaginative. But one thing that kept this movie from b-movie gold is the inconsistent tone in the action sequences. It ranges from p!ss poor slow ass choreography to intense and bad ass. It's funny but it is sort of distracting as well and can kill the pacing. I recommend this movie to those who like gritty and dark ass sci fi action movie lovers.
HumanoidOfFlesh When a meteor crashes into Japan it brings lethal danger:a virus capable of raising the dead and turning them into flesheating zombies.It's up to K-ko to save Tokyo and to fight with living dead and crazed army men.Cheesy and fast-paced Japanese zombie flick which plays like cross between "Dawn of the Dead" and "Resident Evil".First of all "Battle Girl" is nowhere near as violently graphic nor sexually depraved as his earlier features like "Guts of a Virgin".There is not much gore on display and surprising lack of cannibalistic grue.The fights are plentiful,albeit poorly choreographed and the cyberpunk elements are fun to watch.An entertaining and inoffensive zombie effort from Japan.7 out of 10.
Neptune DNA From the mind of one "Guts & Entrails Gaira" comes this low budget zombie flick based on a meteor crash in Tokyo Bay. The aftermath of which (including a gaseous cloud & "cosmic contaminant") leads to a virus inflicted upon the dead--thus giving them new life--meaning bad news for the living, who may yet become living dead themselves...Military takeover of the blackened city in shambles juxtaposes the few remaining radicals, wayfarers, and renegades living by the laws of nature and survival... A traveling van of misfits in particular. The mad scientist General Hugioka oversees experiments on the living to build a monster army to rule the world... Keiko & military-general-father Ita fight for justice and deliverance in a seemingly hopeless situation... Corrupt authority wishes to keep the disaster hidden, so that it may extend its deviant killings, torture, and horrific medical experiments... Can Keiko & Ita save Tokyo? The world?Our lady, Ms. Keiko, with the help of her father's custom designed leather-clad-body-suit, tailored to her specifications--apparently also capable of bolstering feminine superhero type powers--and microchip technology used to communicated with one another--takes on the gang of walking dead corpses and evil military dictators to the death! The monster army can't stop Cutie Keiko either... And this film generally feels like a waste of time in between the laughable fight scenes, $2.00 shoot outs, bad acting, obligatory wrestling moves, but hey; it's got a nice aesthetic touch & i found it to be charming. Not to mention the denouement... Oh, the ending that's not much of an ending. *frown*As for deeper meaning of the content at hand, there does seem to be some nationalistic, anti-torture, and politically motivated commentary on display here (see Hugioka's rambling speech near the end). And for such references, it deserves a higher mark than the average trash fare, but maybe I'm reading things into it to justify a higher rating. In sum: If you want a fun flick similar to Romero's "Dawn of the dead" spliced with a semi-sci fi premise and cyber punkish elements, then this is for you.P.s. "Japan can't be saved by your humanism!"6.5/10
agrajag-4 a so-so zombie movie from japan. if you like zombie movies, i guess this one's not bad. it never really excels, even within the genre, but...it's not bad. well, put it this way: some of the zombies had some cool makeup and there was some cool atmosphere. those two things are the true essentials of a zombie movie - alone, they don't make it good, but their absence will always make it bad. unfortunately, the plot just kind of goes into a downward spiral after the first 30 seconds, and some of the later stupid things include: 1) a maniacal military guy hellbent on controlling the world (to save japan's reputation?), and 2) half-mutant, half-zombie "monsters" which were spawned by simply injecting humans with the zombie virus and mixing it with other virii. this enables them to grow things like Wolverine-esque metal claws. no, i don't understand it either, but this IS from the same people who brought us the wonderfully-yet-bewilderingly bizarre gift of anime. oh, and the fight scenes...ugh. no, i won't go into them. but if you like zombies, you won't do too badly picking up this corny-but-entertaining flick from asia.
