First Love movie review: Takashi Miike infuses heart and humour into a potent cocktail of genre thrills

Firstpost  

Few directors make pulp action movies with the pizzazz of Takashi Miike. And the Japanese filmmaker’s 103rd feature, First Love, is a delirious cocktail of all his stylistic flourishes. First Love’s story races along with the brutal precision of a samurai sword. For genre fans, First Love is comfort food spiced up with good doses of pulp action, a dash of comedy and some tender notes of friendship and romance. First Love was screened at Fantastic Fest, America’s largest genre film festival.
