An amusing action romp that brings together various influences, but gets a bit too serious in its second half. The premise is cute, but it's not particularly original. Thanks to the spirited leads (Akari Takaishi in particular) and some sly comedy, it's at all times an easy and pleasant watch.
The second half is a little darker and more serious in tone, which doesn't quite fit the sillier premise. There are some impressive action scenes to compensate, but the shift in tone was unnecessary and disrupted the pacing. It's not that it ruins the film, it's just a weird choice. I still had good fun with this one, but I was probably expecting a tad more.
