I'd like to start off by saying that I don't usually like movies similar to this one... I loathed 'Sucker Punch' and I wasn't a fan of 'Tron' either... B-grade sci-fi just doesn't call to me. Despite these previous experiences, I did like this movie. It wasn't brilliant per se, but it was watchable. Story: The story in itself was something I have partially seen before but it was unique in its own way. It reminded me slightly of 'Total Recall'. The story was good, confusing at times but enough so to keep you hooked until the end. Naturally, as it is B-grade sci-fi, aspects of the storyline and fight scenes (which are good by the way) were highly unrealistic but that is to be expected in this kind of film. Also, if you're offended by 'low key shots of scantily clad women', steer clear of this movie... It is very much 'a man's movie' in regard to this though, I must admit, I'd love to have a figure like theirs! Moving on... The acting, was fair. I would firstly like to mention the stunt doubles who were involved in this film, I have great respect for each and every one - those fight scenes would have hurt. Onto the cast... I found that I respected the acting of the lead female Nagasawa Nao (Ai) and also Kinoshita Ayumi (Yui) and Takayama Yuko (Haruka). I've read reviews saying that their acting was 'over the top' but I think it was just right for the concept of this movie. Kenji Ebisawa (Yui's brother) was great in this film. I can't really tell you the downfall of the acting without giving away the storyline... so I'll leave it there. As for the music, I really don't have much to say. It was fair. The only music I truly noticed was when the credits were rolling. I found that the music neither enhanced or negatively impacted the movie, rather than just went by unnoticed. I'd rate the rewatch value at a 6. I'd probably watch this again, just to see if there was anything I missed the first time around. Overall, as in alignment with the rest of the scores, a solid 6. Don't get me wrong, the movie was interesting and is worth watching, it simply wasn't brilliant.
