High & Low: The Worst X poster

Shigeaki Kubo is gone, three new directors take his place. The result is an entertaining high school brawler, that lacks the extravagant flair that Kubo brought to the franchise. It's a good film, certainly if you like this kind of poser action, but it's by far one of the worst in the franchise, which is a little disappointing.

The characters are a fun bunch, the fights are chaotic and dynamic, and the pacing is pleasant. The cinematography isn't quite on the same level as the previous films though, and there's a bit too much drama, messing up the balance with the action scenes. I had a good time with it, but I was hoping for a bit more.
