Very disappointing...

Surprisingly incoherent and boring

A Masterpiece!

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

A father searching for his kid, very similar style like Confessions (2010) which i've just realized, share the same director Tetsuya Nakashima. Nana Komatsu the cutie playing Kanako's nice to watch, also the main lead, Koji Yakusho playing her dad acted well as a bad person. It goes back and forth between 2 characters at different times. Some parts are very distasteful but they keep the suspense & mystery going, it got me interested enough to stay watching till the end to find out what happens next. The resolution of the story's quite beautiful too. This film's unexpectedly bonkers.So yeah, most certainly if you really enjoy mystery suspense films with some craziness particularly like Confessions (2010) or Oldboy (2003) , i think you may appreciate this flick too.7/10

I think I would've liked reading the source material for this movie. Seems like a good read. The actual movie on the other hand, it was a bit of a hit and a miss for me. I liked the colors, the great acting, and the fact that Kanako's dark secret wasn't something I saw coming. However, I felt like it started out great and then kind of dragged on a little bit on the second half just to end as a totally confused mess. Too many characters and too many sub-plots all of a sudden. I think with a little bit of editing and focusing more on some of the characters (like the bullied boys who were in love with Kanako, or the thug girl) the movie would've been a bit more interesting. If you want to watch something violent and gory, with a decent story and a dark twist I would recommend it. It's pretty unique. I wouldn't buy it, but it was entertaining, a decent watch.

from the start of the movie until the end contain discomfort atmosphere with violent and some nudity.The story is quite confusing and I regret that I watch this movie.But after me and my friend have some discuss about this story it quite give us a lot of idea and what director want to teach us about so we give another shot for this story and we got what this story is to remind something for Japan people.The soundtrack is really various and their production is beautiful(even though cg is bad in action) Really recommend for someone who could open- mind for some weird story that is hard to understand.This movie is really good for someone who study art and who love plot twist or complicate story.Last remind.everyone can't be trusted.

To summarize this movie in short: An insane father looks for his insane daughter who was killed by her middle school teacher after she lured the school teacher's daughter sold herself to old men. The teenage daughter, Kanako is a psycho ruin the people's life as her entertainment.That insane father tried very hard to find the daughter only because he wants to kill her with his own hands as he thinks the daughter looks down on him. The most ridiculous part is, he was injured by gun shots, knife wound, and be beaten hard, but he doesn't have to go hospital or take rest, he just recovers like a superman, only with lots of blood stain on his face and clothes.This movie includes a lot of violent scene and pornographic scene which includes couple rapes.The story structure is loose, and things happened in the movie doesn't make sense. Overall, I'll say, stay away from it, waste of time and totally disgusting.
