I'm a really big fan of the manga and anime series of this film, so I probably should have gone into this expecting very little of it. The live action remakes of a series are usually quite bad and this one was no different; the plot starts quite a way into the story - giving little backstory, Satou didn't look like his part at all and seemed more like a late thirty-early forty year old man than the archaic person he is supposed to be, and it felt like the entire thing was rushed through.

Honestly the only good part about this was Tanaka was hot, the electro music across the battle scenes were pretty decent and it was at least recognisable as Ajin. A shame; this could have been a really good live action, but I feel like directors just use these as cash grab rather than creating decent content for the franchises.
