tokyo 10 plus 01 come from director higuchinsky who bring u the imaginative and entertaining uzumaki . that make it all the more surprising and disappointing that the action flick be such a mess . it start out with 11 people in an unknown room ( shade of cube ) and quickly turn into a parody or hommage of kinji fukasakus battle royale with a couple of idea from the german tv movie da millionenspiel throw in for good measure . the result be an embarrass piece of film represent the story have no power and no sense and no timing and no anything . it just move along for only 70 minute and still manage to bore . and the twist at the end be so bad and the film even manage to have an anti climactic end . it neither funny nor gory and neither suspenseful nor witty . so at least you could expect it to be stylish come from the guy who do uzumaki and right . no . it look be utterly cheap . the digital technology make the set look like remains from battlefield earth and the camera trick ( zoom and blood on the lens etc . ) be both childish and annoy . i do not get how higuchinsky could have do this . what do he try to do . low budget trash . some sort of guerilla film making . whatever he try and the result be a disaster . if you love uzumaki like i do and avoid this film at all cost or the name higuchinsky will fall a lot in your esteem . it a bore fest that look like it shot by an amateur . or in short represent crap . rating represent negative .
