Fantastically neurotic

Kamikaze Girls is a great story of two girls: One is in a female biker gang, the other loves everything Rococo and lolita fashion. The two have very different personalities and the latter is completely absorbed in her love for Rococo that she rejects any form of friendship. What develops in interesting, and very funny. Snatches of animation punctuate the film and add to it's comic side, while serious themes emerge later on.

I expected it to be quite close to Nana because of the two girls meeting element, but it is very different in every other respect. The light and fluffy lolita-fashion-lover is not the pushover she seems to be, and the biker-chick has her own morals which she stands up for.

A good laugh with random head-butts. Excellent!
