It's not difficult to see why this movie - which reportedly cost $25 million - has been looking for a release date since it was finished more than three years ago.
Stephen Whitty, Newark Star-Ledger
Rotten
Extremely cool-looking in the manner of "Sin City,'' but clumsily staged, slackly acted and mind-numbingly dull...
Lou Lumenick, New York Post
Rotten
A potpourri of genres that ends up a morass of cliches.
Andy Webster, New York Times

"Bunraku" is so desensitizing with its hyper-stylized distractions and movie references it feels more mush-up than mash-up.
Robert Abele, Los Angeles Times
