It's just twisted enough to be worth a look.

The Yokai War, when it finally comes, is pretty near an unmitigated disaster, filled with silly special effects and sillier action.

Takashi Miike's excursion into extravagant and demented fantasy combines folkloric elements with images from contemporary Japanese popular culture.
New York Times
The film makes no more or less sense than Ridley Scott's Legend or Jim Henson's Labyrinth, and in fact has a creaky, blue-gel '80s-ness to it, but for many, keeping up with Miike's cranked output is an end in itself.
Village Voice
Rating: 7/10 --
A fanciful dramatisation of children's scary fantasies in impressive puppetry.

Rating: 3/4 --
... Miike's epic undertaking is probably best appreciated as the first stab at a live-action version of a Hayao Miyazaki ecologically minded extravaganza like Princess Mononoke.

This noisy, effects-crazed PG-13 adventure might work for 10 year-olds who are beyond Nickelodeon piffle and ready for Japanese splatter.
