Dorathen Better Late Then Never

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Chantel Contreras It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

Emperor of Cinema Lord of Chambara I am speechless. I thought this movie will be completely a waste of time. I mean, look at the bad guys.They look so funny and I even laughed when I saw Cutie Honey running in the streets covering her body with a trash bag. The movie was silly but it really delivers entertainment. The ending was not okay, the beginning of the movie it started well and in the middle, medium and in the end you get your treat. But I didn't get bored, better than Casshern. I recommend this movie. But I never saw the anime. I just went directly to the movie, but I understood the story. You gotta love those movies. Now my favourite characters are Gold Claw, Scarlet Claw and Cobalt Claw. Black Claw was good but he is a singer which annoyes me.

rooprect Its brilliance is perhaps its downfall. CUTIE HONEY is a profound and thought-provoking vision disguised in a comic book plot. Unfortunately, those looking for a straight action flick will be put off by the philosophical themes; and those of you looking for an art film will be put off by the flashy theatrics. You'll notice many of the reviewers have panned it for its "sappy ending" (that's the philosophical part), while others have panned it for being too gaudy (as in Black Claw's song & dance fight routine--oh c'mon, who doesn't like a villain who kicks your ass while singing to a string quartet?!). Just keep your minds wide open on this one, folks. Enjoy the colourful action scenes and the quippy humour as well as the thought-provoking themes that run under the surface, and you'll have a great time.I'm more of an "art film" fan myself, and I was drawn into Hideaki Anno's work by his masterpiece SHIKI-JITSU. Though this is certainly a crowd-pleaser, it's not lacking in Anno's signature poetics. In particular, pay close attention to the dichotomy of Sister Jill & Cutie Honey: two immortal beings who are essentially the same but separated by one key philosophy. If you are in tune with this theme, the ending will be a treat for you.One other thing I must mention: the music is perfect. It illustrates exactly what I'm talking about; Honey's "themesong" is at first a goofy romp, sung in that high-soprano, staccato j-pop style. But when the scene calls for seriousness, we get the same melody presented on a somber piano. The effect, along with the dynamic cinematography and lighting, shows us the two extremes of Hideaki Anno, a man whose work I'm very much looking forward to exploring in the years to come.

dryadcrow This film does not need any deep serious in depth analysis.....it is what it is....a weekend popcorn munching, cola swigging, sugary sweet sucking blast of power ranger silliness, glittery costumes, over the top posing villains and a sugary sweet, naive but extremely sexy heroine running around in underwear and skimpy costumes kicking the bad peoples behinds.....all as it should be. Cutie Honey really is a Cutie Honey and for this reason alone males will want watch this film and the females will be hitting them over the head with the nearest non lethal object to try to keep them more than six inches from the screen in case they go blind.............oh by the way.....did i forget to say i totally enjoyed the film. settle down and prepare for some action packed silliness from beginning to the end !! dryadcrow

Bernard_Sinew Cutie Honey is one of the most entertaining bad films that you are likely probably to see. It looks like its made for minors, yet has elements and philosophy that you just wouldn't get whilst watching Power Rangers. Think sexy, sassy and daft: watch this film with no expectations! Both Cutie Honey and Natty are, well like the films name suggests, exactly that. Interesting cameos from what looked like Sakichi Sato, Boba and Suzuki Matsuo. Huge product placement and some great short scenes involving a cat.Shake your head in disbelief, yet at the same time grin.*** (3 stars)
