Excellent

Rating: 10/10 (10 January 2015)

Not many good reviews on here but I thought the movie was excellent, it kept my attention and I enjoyed the acting.
Sure, there were a few bloopers, but what movie doesn't have them. I think Takamasa Ishihara did an excellent job with his understated menacing performance of the twisted, effete, Bird. He gave out just the right amount of controlled thwarted sexually driven sadism. I really can't fault his performance. What people forget is that some of the most evil people are those who appear the most ordinary or weird.
Jolie has been given a rough ride of this movie, but she did a good job as far as I'm concerned and I think she can only get better.
