I didn't like this movie. Action scenes and visuals were great, Ryo was cool but felt off in comic scenes, too much exaggerated yelling and weird not-so-cool behaviour around women. Story was a bit weak, well, probably because this movie was just an intro to its world setting. I assume there will be sequels. Kaori was actually the weakest link - she was dumb as a doorknob. I don't know the source material, but if they could have modernised the story, the lady character could have been improved too.
