Saiga, the lead character of the dystopic fantasy Speed Grapher (2005), is an ex-war photographer, scrounging for a living in Tokyo: Ten years after the "Bubble War," the city is divided between the super-rich and the wretchedly poor. Saiga stumbles onto an underground sex club where the corrupt elite meet to realize their kinky fantasies. A kiss from goddess-dancer Kagura gives him the ability to make anything he photographs explode, and he quickly puts this talent to use. Speed Grapher plays like a sleazy mixture of Cowboy Bebop, Eyes Wide Shut, and Wicked City. The filmmakers try to capture the cynical charm of Spike Spiegel, but Saiga comes across as a jerk, not a wounded lion. The story is so ridiculously over the top, it's unintentionally funny, but the splatter scenes may turn viewers' stomachs. In Japan, Speed Grapher used Duran Duran's "Girls on Film" as the opening theme, but the rights weren't available for the U.S. release. (Rated TV MA, suitable for ages 17 and older: graphic violence; violence against women; suggested torture; partial nudity; profanity; sexual situations, including lesbianism; tobacco use) --Charles Solomon
