The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

And I can tell this one has good humor and lot of porn and excessive nudity,heck I love this hentai that make me lose virginity imaginative and I love the violence I love the characters I love the black one too I'm not racist and discriminative,and I respect black people,and I don't say black in front of them OK. This is with the animator of grave of fireflies and akira and he made a great hentai perfectly drawn and perfectly plot related this is number one anime ever

Director Yasuomi Umetsu who also created another classic animation flick, Kite 1998, in which he not only directed but was also the writer has created another 60 minute gem in Mezzo Forte.I enjoyed the shootouts, violence, blood-flow, slow mo bullets and sex scenes.If you enjoyed this as much as I did then check out other classic animation flicks, Blood the Last Vampire 2000, Dead Space: Downfall 2008, Immortal (Ad Vitam) 2004, Ninja Scroll 1993, Perfect Blue 1998, Renaissance 2006, Film Noir 2007 and The Secret Adventures of Tom Thumb 1993.If your interested in more adult animation you might want to check out classic Cool Devices 1995 episodes, Curious Fruit, Sacred Girl, Yellow Star and Fallen Angel Rina plus Taboo Charming Mother 2003, Behind Closed Doors 2001, Mistreated Bride 2005, Insatiable 2005, Immoral Mother 2009 and G-Spot Express 2005.

Mezzo forte is a nice little action, comedy. The animation flows like water. The guns are well displayed, and Mkura is one of my favorite characters ever. The fight scenes were some of the best I've seen in any anime, rivaling that of Cowboy Bebop.Now to the bad news. The story is okay, but many things don't seem to come all the way together. Like Mikura's ability to tell the future at random moments. If you're asking, "How can she do that?", your question will never be answered. Many others have commented on the rape scenes, and I must agree that they are totally out of place here. Somewhere between the guy getting hit in the balls with a baseball, and some other guy running out of the bathroom stall with his pants falling down in fear, the scenes don't fit in at all. Also the sound design isn't up to par for modern times at all. The music sucks also.

I've been hearing lots and lots of talk about this OAV for a while now and I've been trying like hell to find it. I eventually managed to download it completely uncut (in Japanese) which is the way to see it. It does not disappoint.In the tradition of live-action films such as Baise Moi, Mezzo infuses graphic sexual content (i.e. penetration) in its run, which is why this film has garnered lots of buzz in the anime circles. Now, it could have done without the sex scenes but it doesn't make it any worse. The action is plentiful and crazy with cute chic Mikura blasting bad guys with the ferocity and gracefulness of Chow Yun-Fat. Momoni adds an interesting balance between her psychotic, sadistic, rage-induced violent tendencies and Mikura's reactive, poetic destructiveness. In the end this is a bloody, sex-filled romp through familiar territory but with enough humor and explosions to make it interesting.
