To sum up this movie in one sentence: Bubbly, wet tentacled camp.

Yes, this movie is very campy. It's low budget, it has lousy special effects and it's Japanese. But hey, who wants to watch this movie for the special effects (or Japanese)? We want to watch it for the tentacles!

Ah-- and they were quite disappointing. You know how some books don't translate well to movies? The same applies to anime, they dosn't translate well to live action. Especially the tentacled ones. The tentacles did provide some inital amusement though and they stuck plenty of nudity in it, so that kind of made up for it. Still this movie isn't a very easy to follow and to someone who hasn't seen the anime it won't make a lot of sense. Actually if you were confused by the anime chances are you'll be more confused after watching this. And pay no attention to the bad acting.
