I didn't know what to expect when I clicked play on this movie. I knew it was action and that was all. When the movie started it was very slow making me want to turn it off, but I pushed through to the end and I am glad I did. It got better after about 25 minutes, when the action and mystery started to take place. Good thing there are 2 more movies cause this one did NOT explain anything about the mysterious friend who is now a leader of this group and....yeah this movie was just full of confusion so I hope the next two movies clear at least a few things up for viewers. Overall the acting and music were good~ Don't know if I would ever watch this movie again though...

A terrible adaptation but a fun time if you've already read the manga
A terrible adaptation of one of my favourite manga series, but if you have read the manga before you are in for a fun time. The story is so confusing it's almost comical, so much material, both characterisation and central mystery, is glossed over, and it would be impossible to comprehend without the manga. Although, I would be lying if I said I didn't have a blast watching it.If you haven't read the manga already, please do, it's excellent, please don't watch this trainwreck first.

La actuación de los personajes se mantuvo siempre excelente, enfocados en expresiones reales, mostrándonos a un asesino escalofriante imposible de identificar. La música, estuvo bien adaptada cuando se requería, y los efectos especiales, aunque no fueron los mejores, dieron un reflejo del esfuerzo por hacer de esta historia una obra maestra.
La historia en sí es EX-CE-LEN-TE. No entiendo cómo rayos muchas personas no saben de su existencia.
Me limito a hacer una buena comparación entre Live-action y el manga, pues no me he terminado de leer este último. Pero hasta lo que llevo leído, aseguro que se adapta perfecto.
No he visto las otras dos películas, y es algo que tengo pendiente cuando cuente con el tiempo suficiente para dedicarme a él 100% a la excelencia.
