Romeo Is Bleeding just ends up flaunting its Grand Guignol outrageousness, rubbing our noses in its desire to be a gaudy hipster freak show.

The film comes across as being an ironic pastiche rather than legitimate neo noir.

This is a battle of the sexes movie played out at such a pitch of pervsity and amorality that it ultimately becomes rather laughable.

Medak is one of those curious directors with a distinctly idiosyncratic filmography often forgotten about.
