Sukeban Boy Trailers

A raucous teen boy with a feminine face is teased everywhere, so his odd biker father dresses him as a girl and sends him to an all-girl school. The lad introduces himself as Sukeban, and a classmate, Michiko, takes him to after-school activities. Lessons on humility turn violent when a masked hatchet-wielding woman turns up. Jealousy, syringes of hormones, bare breasts, a blood bath, and more figure in the resolution.

Thehibikiew Not even bad in a good way
Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.
Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
holger444 I loved this movie! The story is full of surprises and idiosyncracies, the images wild, the moral feminist (if I can say so as a man) and still sexy (if I am allowed to say so as a man). This movie seems to my knowledge to be the root of all the future nasties like "Vampire Girl vs. Frankenstein Girl", "Machine Girl", "Gothic and Psycho Lolita", "Zombie Ass" and may also brought some inspiration for some of Sono's and Miike's films. Yes, boobs are allowed in this movie. No frontal nudity though. I hate Amazon who is the owner of IMDB, but I couldn't help but to revive my account for writing something nice about this good movie. So, how can a movie with boobs be feminist? First, because boobs are feminist. Second, because a boy/girl finds her/his way in adolescence without compromising to social standards. Third, because men are really ridiculous idiots in this movie. Fourth, because women and men change their roles here (apart from point four, which is decidedly dedicated to men exclusively). Fifth, because love tells me.
CDTrannyLez Its so laughable when you read reviews by people who refer to themselves as "Westerners" and they act so mystified and shocked by the "sexual practices" of the Far East. First lets face facts. The sexual proclivities of people in the United States are no more tame or less bizarre then anywhere else in the world. Go visit your local adult shop or an adult convention in America. You will see its just as shocking and weird if not more so. Look at the AVN awards that are held in the United States and you will see that we should not be pointing fingers at anyone's fetish or perversions.Second, this particular movie was designed to be gory and sexual. Its a "Pink" film after all by the makers of "Machine Girl". It doesn't represent all the people of Japan. I'm sure anyone who watches "Jackass" realizes that not all Americans go around shoving matchbox cars in their backside or engage in dangerous stunts for fun.
mmushrm This movie is great. I went into this without expecting much but came away very entertained.This movie is absolutely ridiculous which is what makes it so good. Some parts are slapstick Hilarius. The fight scenes are meant to be bad but are very well shot that you appreciate the "artistry" involved. A lot of young nubile boobs thrown in as well.The acting of the title character "Sukeban" is quite good actually. She plays the boy quite well. very good physical comedian. All the male characters are jokes...played for laughs.I was laughing a lot through this movie, even the ending credits were ridiculous. I highly recommend.
Jo First about the SPOILERS warning: Some trash-movies are so unbelievable predictable, that no one could write a comment without telling 99 point nine percent of their story. That can be the case with this movie..If i would tell you Sukeban Boy is some strange Manga adaption (of a comic i've never read), realized with living & real actors (though you might think puppets could act better) containing & dealing with some school girls in some strange clubs (which again base on girls being naked, when not stripping - though while fighting) and some sick gore-stuff... AND some really cheap martial arts.That could/would be a SPOILER....if you're a fan of mangas with a cheap story. Well, its a cheap movie...Except you're a real movie fan. Disregarding any taste. Read on..If you can accept a little bit of B-Movie, some faked blood, and a lot of soft-porn-like content you will love this movie. Its a compilation of the most aesthetic (ultra-)soft-porn, the most un- aesthetic martial arts you have (and may ever) see(n) (again) PLUS the most child-friendly gore-style scenes EVER.The gore/splatter: Its not like some "Sweeney Todd"-fake-blood-with-singing.. no, its like some have-fun-with-fake-blood-on-nickelodeon. It features flesh-like guns coming out of nipples, the "Planet Terror"-leg-gun (actually 20 guns from a 99 ct Store), an axe-murderer with an axe more blunt than the dwarven axe from "Dungeons & Dragons" & without a murder, a "Alien"/"Men in Black"-Roach/"Power Rangers" Costume AND a Marx-Brothers smear-with-blood scene.The porn: mainly tits... a lot of them... nothing more, but a lot... the whole time... every girl gets naked (naked as the day they were born, but mostly just showing their tits).. AND every guy shows his tits..The martial-arts: quite a lot of them appear in the movie. They DO NOT move the plot any further. But they are there. And somehow they seem to make sense.. its not like the movie hasn't a plot.. but somehow, i don't know why, it seems to base on martial arts - WITHOUT a plot being related to the martial-arts-scenes. And they are bad. There isn't ANY choreography. not a bit, not an ounce - nothingThe main point is: taking these features altogether, its no Kubrick - but its worth trying. And it has very artistic sides, like: a Ballhaus slide around some naked butts, a short faked slow motion, about two or three final martial-arts moves, that are farts, kicks to the head, that are pasted in... NO not "Adobe-Premiere"-style, more like MS PAINT on Windows 3.1.1 in better resolution, and manga-like waiting-for-some-action scenes (like most of the famous "Dragonball" Episodes in the TV-series)The conclusion of this comment: its the BEST of most B-movies mixed together in a nonrecurring cocktail of Japanese manga-movie, B-splatter-movie, very-soft-porn and extreme-cheap-made-martial-arts-without-choreography. See it or leave it - its original, its sick, its great - but its ART!
