From the films title and cover photo you can pretty much tell what you're in for. What I didn't expect was how well acted, how well filmed, choreographed, funny and over all charming I would find it. Did I say funny ? It is funny! I think the two main characters really deliver charming, nuanced performances. Yes it's an admittedly ridiculous version of teenagers having to face the absurdity of modern times but it's well done even endearing. Think "The Raid" meets "Rurouni Kenshin" meets "Ghost World" meets something funny. I really liked it. I don't know that it warrants a sequel as I see is planned but as a one off I think it was really successful !!!

I really enjoyed this. It really has a feel like Clerks, or 10 Things I Hate About You, or any number of the hip indie teen films I watched in the 90s. Most of the movie is about the two girls just figuring out their living situation together and I enjoyed those scenes very much.

The action is fun, the plot is simple if bizarre, the villans are odd, the maid cafe scenes were hilarious. I enjoyed some of the playing with time and the fantasy sequences that all customer service employees have.

The two main actresses did a stellar job and I'll be looking out for them in other things.

I wish IMDB didn't insist on having 600 characters as I have said all that I need to say about this film.

The movie does a good job of balancing brutal action, funny moments, and some subtle social commentary to create one of the best action comedies of the past few years.

There's less action than one might expect from the trailer and other reviews but the action that we do get is very good. The climax fight in particular is S level stuff and makes the movie really must-see. The leads have excellent chemistry together. They keep the movie very entertaining during the periods without gun fights.

The social commentary is very light. If you aren't familiar with life in Japan in 2021, you won't notice it and you'll still be able to enjoy the film. If you are familiar with life in Japan in 2021, you'll have a deeper understanding of the struggle of young people entering the workforce in a declining country. And that Maid Cafes aren't just a quirky weird Japanese trend but actually kind of horrible places to work and a means of survival. There's a brief conversation behind the scenes at the Maid Cafe that does an excellent job of briefly bringing these themes to the forefront before the movie moves on to bigger things.

Overall, this is a must watch movie for action fans, comedy fans, and fans of foreign films. It gets a lot of things right.

Interesting main characters, who are polar opposites in personality. They are quirky and kind of sympathetic, especially the less socially adept one. There is no significant backstory on their evolution into their "jobs" but just accept what it is and see how these two very different people mesh together.

I really congratulate the filmmaker for the action choreography, which is extremely intricate and very well photographed. It is vastly better than most fight scenes in films these days, even very high budget ones.

The story wasn't gripping, and there wasn't an opportunity for me, at least, to find much sympathy for anyone in the story. At least the dead were deserving of their demise. Still, I enjoyed it.

They are really cute maid. It is not a serious action movie. Just enjoy their pretty cute violence action. Don't think serious......They kill for a living not for fun. They have to be maid in maid cafe to be employee. Killing is just a part time job. Really funny.
