aka Office Royale, or jigoku-no-hanazono ～Office Royale～
Extremely My Shit
When this was on the festival circuit I had it bookmarked and watchlisted. Nothing ever came of it (no physical release here). RoR tweeted a clip today and I found it on DailyMotion w/decent subs. Was so happy I couldn’t wait to spin it up. It’s even better than I expected. So gd funny, too.
My only criticisms are the last act wasn’t really needed but amusing all the same. And I wish the actors (love Alice Hirose) were given more training time for realistic fighting moves. But these don’t distract from the entertainment value. Now if I can find this on BD with subs!! Would be a fun movie night selection.

note: only a quarter of the actors are listed. This has a HUGE cast of women.
