Reviews	"...a highly engaging visual delight, driven by a timeless tale of greed, betrayal and the inevitable grisly retribution" -- Infini-Tropolis "Even setting aside that some oyama were homosexual, the rivalry of women for Yukinoji makes Revenge of a Kubuki Actor a gender-bender where love charges along without need for apology, explanation or second thoughts" -- Coffee, Coffee... "Ichikawa integrates all the divergent material into a satisfying whole -- Revenge of a Kabuki Actor finishes on a note of mystery and legend" -- Turner Classic Movies "It truly is a singular work by Ichikawa that ties together the early days of Japanese cinema and the then burdgeoning New Wave and one that thankfully has been brought back to center stage" -- J-Film Pow Wow "Kon Ichikawa infuses every sequence with Kabuki theatrics, complete with fake snow, falling cherry blossoms, impossibly shadows, stage lighting, and even a plucky narrator (Yamitaro the Thief, played by Kazuo Hasegawa sans makeup)" -- DreamLogic "Revenge of a Kabuki Actor is lavish, dramatic and stunning in its ability to tell this dramatic story with just minimal usage of action. The pacing of the film and the overall film itself is much like Kabuki theater itself" -- Cinegeek "While watching Kabuki one is constantly struck by Ichikawa's masterful touch and the elegant craftsmanship of his crew" -- j.b. spins "...a powerful performance mixed with well balanced directing" -- AnimeRadius "I give Revenge of a Kabuki Actor a 4 out of 5" -- SoReelFlix
