Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Paul Magne Haakonsen Actually, this entire movie can be summarized by three words: only in Japan!With a mother who is a bondage mistress and a father who was a cop, the future holds something very Unique for Young Kyosuke Shikijo. And this plays out well in a truly unique and bizarre storyline. By putting women's panties over his head, Kyosuke can become The Perverted Mask - the one and only superhero to reach such levels of weirdness ever.Based on a Manga, "HK: Forbidden Supherhero" (aka. "HK: Hentai Kamen") is somewhat of an acquired taste. And if you enjoy this kind of oddity, then the movie is definitely well-worth watching and you will more than often be laughing hard or blown away by the sheer weirdness and absurdity of it all.The movie works well on many levels and in many aspects. And the people who star in this bizarre movie were all doing fantastic jobs and seemed to be having heaps of fun making the movie.Wacky costumes, over-the-top sexy poses, odd humor, and lots of entertainment, "HK: Forbidden Superhero" is a live action Manga not to be missed. It is great fun from start to end.

guisreis I marked the "spoiler-allert" button as I give some general information about the character (not much more than the storyline) but I will not tell the story. This an extremely bizarre parody of superhero movies (even the opening credits follow a similar style of the one used in DC and Marvel films). While grotesque and a bit silly, with some exaggerated overacting throughout the film (specially when the hero's mother and the villains appear) that annoys a bit, it works and is quite enjoyable and funny. Hentai Kamen, or the Masked Pervert, is probably the weirdest superhero that has ever existed (and possibly could not have been created by a non Japanese). A son of a sadist prostitute and a masochist policeman, he gets his superpowers from his perversion, activated by a combination of his genetics (his parent's pervert genes, particularly his mother's; his father's genes also gave him his duty to fight crime and injustice) and the smell of used panties on his face. His costume is the oddest possible: almost naked, with a panty as a mask over a Spiderman-like mask on his face, a pantyhose dressing his legs and a stretched panty hanged crossed on his shoulders putting him a G-string thong on (yes, expect many close-ups on his butt... and if you have watched "Borat" you may understand my explanation). He has many superpowers, like superspeed movements (much faster than bullets), super ability with a lasso, supernatural martial arts technique, and incredible quasi-flight jumps (somewhat similar to Spiderman). Though, what calls attention the most are his (as funny as repulsive) special attacks: variations of his crotch ("golden balls") "in yo face" blows. He loses powers if dressed, but he also gets stronger if spanked (remember his sadomasochist genes!). Kyosuke Shikijoh, the superhero's alter ego, is the extreme opposite: extremely shy, sexually repressed, conservative, always feeling guilty about everything. Supervillains are extremely campy and the main character's love story is completely cheesy. Though, this is the kind of film that convinces you about getting into its own terms; therefore, some traits that could be seen as problems are tolerated and sometimes (not always, though) even enjoyed. The last, but nor least, to resume: the final battle is veeeery Japanese! The end is not so original, but nice.

Adam Svoboda I like Japanese movies. They tend to give everyone what he wants, be it movies for girls, for boys, for gays, for SM-addicts, no matter what your preferences or personal perversions are, the are able to make a movie about it, without forcing you see something in all of them (current gay/lesbian trend) or the opposite (ergo trying to blacklist some of them). They simply create something for target audience and don't try to change the viewer. This movie was not for me, despite all of my hopes. The main character has problem accepting what he is, even though he calls himself that way... I found him annoying (but I really did like his alter ego:)). The acting was stiff, there were some logical gaps... I will try the manga, or something like Golden boy to get rid of the aftertaste of this movie. But I admit, maybe my perversions are just not the right ones:).

misty_halo Just watched the movie for the first time~!! I have to say -even after reading the entire manga series- that HK continues to be both a surprise and delight~!! XD ♥♥♥ Overall, it was a great movie, really 'laugh out loud' and just epic-ally done, even the actors seemed to enjoy it~!! I caught quite a few slipped smiles~!! :DThe movie could have been done a little better, and the story-line could have been a little more thought out, but I thought it was a good movie~!!My only problem was the fact that a few key characters were missing, and that it never showed his mom's ass~ That was one of my favorite parts of the Manga~!! :P ♥♥♥ If I can stand to look at a man's bare ass throughout an entire movie, why couldn't they add in that one heart-shaped touch?!!Completely recommended, You~ HAVE to watch this movie~!! XD ♥♥♥
