The cinematography of this film was excellent. It is a slow burner and brutal in some scenes however If you like Japanese culture you will enjoy this film. Not for gaijins :)
I thoroughly enjoyed this film until the last 30 minutes of it as it took a nose dive towards the end. The script became contrived and some of the characters were doing things that their characters wouldn't be doing, but the script was making them do it. Jared Leto plays a very interesting, quiet, calculating character in this one and it's a great performance in the same respects of the quiet, calculated mob characters such as Al Pacino's character in The Godfather, etc. An interesting movie, but it could have been great if the ending would have paid off. Sometimes it's all how you finish, not how you begin.
Al the cultura and the effort due it is gorgeous. The people who work on the film gotten their homework very well and it's nice.
First review ever, movie was awesome. Im prior navy who used to bounce at a couple clubs in Tokyo on the side so met some interesting people and saw some interesting things there. I'm kinda skeptical and critical to a movie like this, almost didn't watch it. So glad I did though, Leto plays kick ass part, all the actors and actresses do really, and everything movie was very very well done. Awesome prison, mafia, yakuza japan flick, great everything! Thank you movie.
