Engels I don't know. I’ve seen several Asian films and every time and every time they have the same characteristics. I don't understand the language and therefore keep reading the subtitles and don’t have much time for the visuals, actors who seem to be standing in front of the camera for the first time and most of their performances are disastrous, names I don't even remotely care about and, as almost always, a pretty good idea but executed in a parodically bad style. Unimpressive below average. ()

Engels A person's actions always reveal their character! A decent hunt for a serial killer from Japan. Japan has definitely outdone themselves technically, Character has really high level of craftsmanship (what is a certainty with South Korea is rather an exception with Japan). The protagonist is a good guy to the bone, he has a knack for drawing manga, but can't create a proper villain, but that changes when he finds a family of four dead at the table while also catching a glimpse of the face of the killer. He hides this from the police and decides to use that image as a villain in his comics and suddenly it's a huge hit, which even the killer is blown away by, as he sees a likeness of himself and starts copying the murders the writer makes up for the comics. The villain is a good sleazeball, he's a famous pop idol, and he definitely fits the role. I was intrigued that he only chooses families of four members as victims as a symbol of happiness, although I was annoyed that the murders themselves are left to the imagination of the viewer, but at least they show the aftermath. Japan would probably take it badly if they showed the killing of children on camera. The film flows at a slower pace, I enjoyed the detective part, and the best part is the finale, where there was one unexpected twist and the climax is nicely edgy – the film earned a fourth star there, otherwise it would have been a decent three. Those who like serial killers should definitely give this film a chance, especially fans of Japan and Asia. Definitely one of the better films from Japan. 7/10. ()
