    Grandiose

    But not for all audiences though. I found here some elements from the Takeshi Kitano's atmosphere, offbeat, downbeat, with a huge amount of finesse and sensitivity. Hard to follow for action fans and impossible to watch for blockbusters addicts. Superb ending. So shame that not more users have seen it.
