After receiving international recognition with his dramatic films, Takeshi Kitano pays homage to his career as a comedian with an old-school slapstick surreal comedy. We are asked to follow a nerd through his epic journey to fulfill his car-sex dreams. The film contains countless references to both Japanese and western pop culture, with even the soundtrack mimicking popular movie themes and songs. The humor might be way too old for its time, but the first 45 minutes or so are unexpectedly well-paced and sometimes even hilarious. The problem is that there are over 60 minutes of tedious gags and pointless scenes repeating themselves afterward.
