Johnny T I liked the lore of the film, but I wish there had been more action, along with character development between the Protagonists. Though due to this film serving as a prequel to an existing episodic television series, it doesn't get in too deep about "Urami no Mon" and its guardian Izuko. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Kanzaki is a detective searching for a serial killer who is killing young women and keeping their hearts. On his wedding day his wife becomes the killer's next victim sending Kanzaki on a quest for revenge to murder the person who killed his wife. But there is so much more! What starts as a grizzly murder mystery/revenge film opens up to become a truly epic masterpiece. Part love story/supernatural ghost story/action movie. Sky High has it all. Superb cast and terrific acting. Cinematography is amazing, and I love the special effects. Sets are great and the soundtrack really gets you into the action scenes. My only complaint is that the movie does get a little long near the end. If you are looking for something different see this movie. You won't regret it. 3 1/2 stars 2-6-13 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member more genius from Ryuhei Kitamura, a director who creates excitement Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member awsome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member best movie that i have never seen the end to Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Kitamura works on the movie transposition of the sad, bittersweet manga Sky High; barely following the set-up and not so interested in the "softness" of the source, he goes rampant with his favourite gimmicks: lost temples, a romantic, 360 degrees villain (Takao Osawa ostensibly having a lot of fun in the part), gore, supernatural and duels. Sure, subtelity is deadpan lost, but a version Ghost with Katana wielding lost souls is a sight to behold (from the Other Side). Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Read all reviews
