A thriller based on director Hideo Gosha's tried-and-true recipe: crime and beautiful women. A bit of chronological tinkering does give the film an extra dimension, but I doubt it improves. It's a solid story nonetheless, though it could have been a bit more exciting. Nevertheless, it's an entertaining film.
