Critic Reviews of "Big Man Japan (Dai-Nipponjin) [Sub: Eng]"
Detroit NewsJune 26, 2009Somewhere there is a stranger film than Big Man Japan, but it would be hard to find.
Chicago ReaderJune 26, 2009This inspired 2007 send-up of the atomic-monster genre gets a fair amount of comic mileage from Daisato (played by the director) being anything but a big man.
San Francisco ChronicleMay 29, 2009The film, written, directed and starring stand-up comic Hitoshi Matsumoto has, like most superheroes, a tragic flaw: It isn't funny.
New York PostMay 15, 2009At nearly two hours, Big Man Japan is clever (in a sick sort of way) but overlong. It needs judicious editing -- more mockumentary, fewer superhero antics.
New York Daily NewsMay 15, 2009As in life, the nonmonster stuff goes on too long. But wait until the giant baby shows up.
Honolulu Star-AdvertiserJuly 05, 2011An affectionate parody of Japanese giant-monster hero shows to make points about the unraveling of Japan's cultural heritage.
eFilmCritic.comOctober 11, 2009The movie's shambling, matter-of-fact approach to pulpy material is funny, as is its steadfast avoidance of visual hype.
CinefantastiqueSeptember 25, 2009Big Man Japanis built around a funny concept, vaguely akin to Hancock: its title character is a superhero who is a bit of a loser.Unfortunately, the concept is not enough to sustain entire the film.
OregonianAugust 14, 2009The movie doesn't get truly weird until the Power Ranger-style superheroes show up, and the special effects get even more low-rent. Then it really takes off.
What Would Toto Watch?July 31, 2009Big Man Japan shows a good mockumentary needs more than killer concept to make us howl.
MTVMay 30, 2009This is Matsumoto's first feature (he's a famously odd Japanese comedian), but it's a distinctively bizarre piece of work. Remember the name.
