City Hunter a rather weird little action, sci fi thriller, from Japan.
Yes I know I said its weird but that's not to say this is a bad flick. City Hunter comes across as somewhat eccentric, in what I'm guessing, is a very Japanese way. There's is a decent amount of, at times, over the top but nonetheless, engaging action,topped off with a rather textbook but still entertaining, sci fi twist.
Perhaps a minor negative or at least an eyebrow raiser for Western audiences, are some rather odd ball antics, that might seem a bit unapproachable. That said, perhaps this comes with the territory?
In summary, nothing special but certainly fast paced and action packed enough, to merit a look.
