It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

The first must-see film of the year.

I am Lucky to have found such an offbeat mix up between sci-fi and crime flick from Japan. The topic has already been told above, so I won't repeat it like a Parrot. But here the characters are interesting and involved in an unforeseeable plot. Such features are very hard to purchase, especially for European film diggers. Yes, I was Lucky enough to find this one. So shame that there will remain thousands of other movies from Japan undiscovered, buried in vaults, even for Japanese viewers. The best example, this film was not commented, even by a Rising Sun Country movie buff.Such a shame

There are a series of mysterious stabbing deaths in post war Tokyo. Yet no attacker was seen or could have gained entry. Police investigate. They find that the deaths are preceded by buzzing sounds. A group of Japanese scientists were working on cosmic ray research during war and one (Kuroki) feels he was sold out by the others. He spend 6 years in prison and wants to get even. He has a gas that shrinks humans to fly size so they can do his dirty work. Another Scientist has developed a ray that makes objects invisible. A cop uses it on himself and while invisible discovers what Kuroki is up to. But Kuroki finds out about the invisible ray and wants it. This is a film with good acting, audio and video quality. Even the fake cosmic ray lab is realistic. But it is all lost when we see the tiny shrunken man flying around in his business suit, without wings making buzzing sounds. It is so completely unbelievable that it's hilarious. In Japanese with English subtitles. Black and White.
