It's got cool scenes of course (how Tatsuhiko's present intertwines with the past towards the end is very cool), otherwise it wouldn't be Sono, but unfortunately it simply wasn't much of a ride. I was a bit bothered by all the violence – I'm not talking about the fights, these of course were desired; there was just an added element to them that didn't sit well with me. Plus, I wasn't really interested until about an hour and a half in. It just seemed to be lacking in life. A revenge romance with a pubescent mind and pangs of guilt. Japanese action as it should be. The ending was contrived, and though I was considering a higher rating, I'm sticking with a better 3 stars. ()
