Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 2.5/4 --
Crazier than a rat in a can, but certainly fun.
Newsday
Rating: 3/4 --
Goofy and campy and unabashedly old-fashioned, from the silent-era acting technique to the overwrought direction.

...ONMYOJI never really betrays its cultural lineage, borrowing from Hong Kong and Hollywood traditions only for flavor and effect...

Rating: 3.5/5 --
Should strike a strong chord among fans of Japanese period films, particularly those with a mythical, mystical bent like Ugetsu and Kwaidan.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
Rarely solemn or dull, and Takita holds its disparate parts together fairly well.
