Synopsis: Gen Sikeguchi's madcap, free-associational pinball machine is a brightly colored pop pastiche with a violent streak a mile wide. From a would-be murderer (Asano Tadanobu) bedeviled by his unkillable and increasingly pugilistic wife to the long-faced salaryman doomed by a hypnotist's death to cluck like a chicken the rest of his days, the disparate characters are thrown together like ice in a cocktail shaker. At bottom, it feels like an inspired exercise, except the parts with Snatch's Vinnie Jones as an existential hit man, which don't count as inspired. But for sheer left-field energy, Survive Style is hard to beat.
