Customer Ratings & Reviews

First and foremost Takahashi Miike is a fantastic director in his own right. If you haven't seen Ichi the Killer, go seek it out. This film seems to take a lot of stock from the school of Tarantino, and that's not a bad thing. Through this lens Miike presents a dynamic cast of characters all displayed on a derelict stage of underground schemes. Well worth your time and money.

Takashi Miike is a cinematic poet and it shows epically in First Love. This is one of my many favorite films from him and I’m so happy I can finally own it on a Blu-Ray and DVD! Those Gangsters pack a punch of style and dark humor under Miike’s direction.

The Japanese Chili pods are mildly hot, Dark reddish-brown, similar to the Chile de Arbol with a pointed tip, a wide body and are significantly flatter and have thicker skin. Japanese Chiles get their name from the Spanish word for Japanese. ... They are also known as Santaka, Hontaka, Chinese Chiles and Oriental chile.

Takashi miike is hands down top 3 of my favorite directors. He literally has a new movie constantly ready. He's basically Japan's Sam Jackson. Even in staple genres, like the Yakuza genre. He still finds ways to find new and exciting ways to showcase. First love is no exception.

Not the best movie I’ve seen from him. If you’re a fan of his work this goes back to the more over the top style of his older films. Not as good as Blade of the Immortal but still entertaining.

Violent and compelling a whole Lotta fun. Asian cinema is coming into its own they may copy Hollywood action genre but they totally know how to make it their own. This is definitely a fun ride.

In the style of Snatch or a Tarantino type movie First Love is a fun adventure. Seeing other cultures take on stories from their point of view makes this a fun movie night selection

Was a good take that plays on stigmata and god and stuff like that if your into stuff like that I liked it a lot good special effects and a involved storyline to keep you interested he edge of your seat

I was surprised when I saw this at Best Buy. I didn't think a Japanese movie would sell well at a place like Best Buy. I enjoyed the movie.

Can’t explain this, the trailers give a bit too much don’t watch it just watch the movie it’s engaging and very very entertaining It’s by takashi mike the guy that made the awesome horror mo ie audition

First love is incredible and what we have know to love from Takashi Miike take elements from his other films and kinda slap them together for this if you are looking for good foreign films look no further

Takashi Miike has made over 100 movies so by this point you should know what to expect. If you’re a fan of his, you will enjoy this movie. Funny, weird, violent. 10/10

It was good movie. Not too many movies from Japan make it into the American Blu Ray market. Added to my collection.

Takisha Miike is in top form, Better than most American mafia movies, Lots of twists.

This movie is a wacky Japanese movie and was great! Fun, fun, fun...but not for everyone can be a little extreme for some.

Great movie in English with some scenes cut from original flim will get in Japan or ebay but good for American version

Bit of True Romance and Pulp Fiction not as crazy as Ichi the Killer.

The beginning of this movie is a little slow, but from mid to end this movie rocks. I love Takashi Miike's movies.

Reminds me of a Asian Style Tarantino movie fast and crazy fun action
