Charlotte Observer
The picture shatters all genre conventions.

Village Voice
It's easily the most disarming and inventive movie made for genre geeks in years.

Chicago Sun-Times
I would be lying if I did not admit that this is all, in its absurd and overheated way, entertaining.

New York Daily News
An eye-pleasing French action-slasher film that is cheerfully unencumbered by the usual conventions of stuffy costume drama.

The perfect film for anyone who likes their headbutting and kickboxing dressed up in gold brocade, frilly collars, and tri-cornered caps. And isn't that all of us?
