4 out of 5 stars unedited version=Good Action.......2006-08-12

In the unedited version...it's better. More action and I mean in all genres. Of course in the edited version, there is going to be things that are left out but in the oringinal unedited version it explains it all with blood, violence and sex? yes the oringinal has more sex scenes, panty shots,nipples and other things which could be considered rated 'H' but it's still very good with the action as it delivers. If you are looking for bloody action with a little rated 'H' on the side then buy the Oringinal unedited version of Mezzo.

The story left alot of things unsaid and there could have been alot more done with it. As far as the amount of sex whether it is present or just hinted at depends on if you get the edited version or not. All the reviews I have read for this one say it was only hinted at and had a few panty shots. But the version I own there is at least two sex scenes with the first lasting a couple minutes and the other about 5 or more I think.

Well, for one, this dvd does not need to be called Adult/Hentai. The anime does have a few seconds of nudity but nothing sexual. It does however, try to squeeze in panty shots whenever possible. The action is much like Kite but less graphic and is more suitable for a younger audience. When I mean younger, I don't mean 15. If you like Kite the edited version, then you will like this as well, this one with a bit humor added to in. Expect gore and lots of guns, as always.

5 out of 5 stars Some info for reviewers and a review.......2005-06-25

I am wondering if people are getting Mezzo forte mixed up with Intermezzo. Having seen Intermezzo a few years ago now and Mezzo Forte now, from what I remember Intermezzo was the same group of people however it was full of unedited sex. And the girl seems to be a few years older in Intermezzo than she is in Mezzo forte.

Personally Mezzo Forte for me was just as good as Intermezzo was. Whether or not you see the busty babe having sex she still has that same sexy attitude and kicks ass in a big way!

4 out of 5 stars An excellent pick.......2004-09-27

This is an excellent anime. I really enjoyed mezzoforte. the art work was outstanding. The story could have used a little work though, there were alot of "things" left unsaid that could have seen a little more depth. I think over all it was very entertaining though. And I don't mind watching it more than a couple times.

      4 out of 5 stars Action packed and better than the series.......2006-03-20

      The reason I said that was because i decided to watch Mezzo forte before the series. Watching the main character kill people in the movie kinda makes it weird when they try not to kill in the series. Well anyway Mezzo forte is not your usual anime that contains non stop action (unless you refer to adult situations action). I actually enjoyed watching the movie even though the adult schenes got out of hand sometimes but its still a likeable anime and the edited version is out there for those of you that can't handle that kind of situations. But over all who doesn't like two girls blasting each other with firearms?

      Story: 4(Intresting plot its likeable)
      Music: 4(it seemes to blend in with the movie)
      animation: 5 (Very good specially the action parts which seem intresting not those...)

      5 out of 5 stars this sets a good example for kids.......2006-02-20

      This UNCUT version includes graphic sex, which is why it has garnered lots of buzz in the anime circles. The action and violence is great I love Mezzo Forte.

      4 out of 5 stars Mezzo Forte=Explosions, Blood, and Sex.......2006-01-20

      I've been waiting a long time for Amazon.com to pick up the uncut version of this title so I can review it, and here it finally is, with a bonus T-shirt to boot. Fanboy's rejoice.

      First off, Mezzo Forte Uncut is a hentai film. Though maybe not as blatant as other animated porn, it still has two very graphic sex scenes in it that may turn people away, especially since they deal with the rape of the main character. If this bothers you (and I wouldn't blame anyone if it did) then redirect your attention to the edited version, which has everything but the sex scenes, and doesn't lose much because of it, at least story wise. And, before you leave now, after this paragraph the sex scenes will not be mentions henceforth.

      That out of the way, Mezzo Forte follows Mikura, a tough chick who can and will fight anybody who crosses her path. She's apart of the DSA, a group of private-eye-like agents who only accept dangerous jobs, and they accept their most dangerous job yet in Mezzo Forte. They are charged to kidnap the savage owner of a baseball team named Momokichi. Of course, they accept the mission not knowing exactly what they are getting themselves into; for Momokicki has a daughter who in many ways rivals Mikura, both in skill and in looks, only she's as unstable as an active volcano. What follows is a series of back-and-forth battles between Mikura and Momomi.

      The action in this movie is great, and very detailed. The exaggeration of the action, with Mikura doing impossible flips and spins and leaps, makes it all the better. The animation is great as well, better in fact than its non-hentai sequel Mezzo. Though the voices could have been done better, this can be solved by watching the subbed version instead.

      Depending on your tastes, I'd recommend this or the cut version to anyone who enjoys solid action in their anime. Also, if you're curious about some of Mikura's past, which is explored a little in the Mezzo series, then pick this up, because some of the cut-scenes seen in Mezzo go all the way back to here. And, because it was made by the same director, Mezzo Forte is almost a direct clone (and they even make jokes about this in the film) to Kite, so pick this up if you liked Kite.
