I watched it the other day, my gf bought it for 8 quid in HMV same day I got Ichi the Killer. Ichi is SOOOO much better.
Casshern tbh focusses more on gorgeous visuals and CGI than original or interesting plot. The fight scenes are basically all CGI and last about 30 seconds and I felt like nothing had happened when it finished (Jam felt the same way). Basically its a 2 hour+ film that could have easily been covered in about 75 mins, you get 5 minute stretches of people stood looking out of windows and stuff. No fun, the violence is very anime-influenced, as in its very fast and funky, but really its too one sided when hes against the huge robot army. So yeah, has ok action, but no plot, so if you want an action film its good if you skip the vast majority of the film, you know like the Matrix had about 30 mins of action at the end? This has less.
Ichi the Killer meanwhile is rocking like a mofo. I didnt get the uncut version, cos lets face it Im not paying an extra 12 quid for the ability to see a girl getting her nipples cut off. We all know Kakihara is rocking, and though the CGI is shittier in Ichi than in Casshern the sperm is real as are the internal organs (they used animals). Tis sehr cool, some guy killing guys he thinks are bullies and girls he thinks want to be in an UBER SnM relationship (as in getting off on being cut in half) and ejaculating everywhere. Oh and htey used real sperm.
So Casshern was disappointing, Ichi wasn't as violent as I was expecting but what you do get is gory and fun. So watch Ichi!

Yeah basically Casshern was visual orgasms on a plate of hot virginal babes. As a movie it was poor, but not as bad as a Michael Moore documentary (his face and voice and liberal, "I MUST KNOW THE TRUTH BECAUSE I AM SUPERIOR" attitude just piss me off)
Ichi also lacks a good plot, but makes up for it by being a quirky, weird, crazy film with gore and a protagonist who comes when he kills people.
YAY FOR SPERM!

Ichi the Killer!
You can get teh uncut version for a bit more that includes the scene where they remove a girls nipples... but it only comes in NTSC format. Plus the films fine without it. Like Casshern it has little plot and lots of violence. YAY!
So yeah it works anyways. Takeshi Miike ruling as usual hehe.

Lol its £9 surely if you mug a few old women you can get it! Use Kazuya's "does this rag smell of chloroform" trick if you dont wanna actually risk being chased down by an old lady (dunno how unhealthy you are etc )
