This movie is no good. The acting is bad. The characters are dull and samey and all try way too hard to be cool. Except maybe the guy whose foot keeps getting cramps. The fighting is awful, with half of the 'attacks' not coming even close to connecting. They often use some kind of camera shake to cover up how rubbish it is. The performances are over the top, especially the terrible, terrible bad guys. Coming from a fan of the High & Low movies, though (except for DTC –Yukemuri Junjo Hen– from HiGH&LOW because that films sucks), the biggest problem is the music. The guys in this are also from some J-pop group, so why isn't there some kick-ass music? High & Low had some real bangers and the music in those movies is one of the reasons I like them so much. This is just... Nothing. The stupid posing. Ugh. On a more technical level, this is a very amateur-looking production. Give it a pass. Watch High & Low again.
