Kitano's editing is typically flawless. Visually it's more colourful than usual and certainly more open to interpretation. It’s less overtly violent, but is perhaps the most violent of all when you delve deeper into the motivations.

Ultimately, you'll take from it what you bring to it.
Some basic knowledge of Japanese society will enrich the experience.
