This is a great little movie, a real gem and an absolute must watch wether you're into fantasy or science fiction or not, wether you're into japanese movies and culture or not. It is a movie done with a very small budget and small group of actors basically in one single location. The script is mostly hilarious and moving at times, so full of inventions and situations and the characters are all extremely well crafted. The direction is purely virtuosic. Basically each two minutes loop is a non stop sequence and each one of them is different from the other. I do not want to spoil any element as it's important to watch it without knowing anything more than the basic concept. Believe me, I do not write reviews very often and if I do it's for an extremely good reason.

This movie it's far to be perfect but it's an honest and funny love letter to a century of moviemaking. There's everything inside this movie, from Goerges Méliès to David Lynch with a bit of Monty Python. An ultra low budget gem beautifully shot with a great editing. It is surely worth a watch.

It is quite evident that the writers struggled to find a direction to this show. The pilot had some reshootings due to some cast and storyline changes and the first episodes suffer from a repetitive scheme. It took half a season for the series to find its way but it did and the second half is damn good. Worth watching.
