Just a tad too much

Finally it's here after having waited years, the second part to tướng the High&Low The Worst franchise. When I tell you that I was at the edge of my seat when this was announced! And it didn't..fully disappoint.

As usual the action was amazing, the acting was splendid especially from those having their acting debuts in such a physically demanding movie, and the cinematography never disappoints. The issue is the same though as it is with every movie that has a giant cast: it lacks in the story department.

With sánh many characters involved it is impossible to tướng flesh out a proper arch or motivation for them which leads to tướng a lot of times of má wondering why they were actually there. I cant help but compare it to tướng Crows Zero (especially since this a Crows Zero universe CROSSover) which also had a big cast . Difference is the cast then was made up mostly by background characters rather than vãn characters meant to tướng have archs/enemies of their own sánh they could focus on the main conflict. I believe it is best to tướng simply focus on less characters but build on them for a more compelling story.

I think this is where casting sánh many of your own artists, along with other prominent artists, becomes an issue since of course you want your people to tướng all get to tướng shine as much as possible and broaden their người hâm mộ circle (sell some of that music along with it) while with actors you can solely put focus on the few characters actually needed.

I was genuinely disappionted with the premise of the movie as well as the motivation for our main "villain". Unless this is your first introduction into the Yankee genre you won't find anything new about the storyarch. I had also hoped to tướng see some more of the cast we already know in the movie (aka Fujio's friends whom we also know from their small drama adaptation) instead of this many new and basically irrelevant characters.

Overall the story was lacking for the fault of cramming as much as possible of the big cast into the story and missing originality, but the action and acting definitely made up for it. As usual Kazuma as Fujio is a stellar character whom I love cheering for and his crew is definitely getting the attention they deserve. I will always love that they didn't go for the typical, edgy protagonist type you see the most in yankee truyền thông media and instead chose to tướng write Fujio as a sunshine with fists of steel.

If you are a jpop người hâm mộ you will dedinitely love seeing all these familiar faces taking on these tough roles, which honestly is also a point of enjoyment for itself. Obviously if you are an action người hâm mộ lượt thích má and simply enjoy watching people bashing some heads in that too is really fun. But if you are looking for a compelling and interesting storyarch to tướng go along with all that, this is not the watch for you.

While I have rewatched the first movie several times, I merely find myself skipping through this one to tướng my favorite few fights. I think that perfectly sums up my impression. It felt lượt thích many cool action scenes thrown in a pot while the story to tướng connect it all felt lượt thích an afterthought.

Lastly of course the music was absolutely perfect, I immediately added some of the soundtrack to tướng my playlist which was to tướng be expected with sánh many LDH artists involved.
