I watched this film at 3AM. Yes, 3AM. And I shat my pants because I'm a massive wuss. Still, I'd recommend it.

I'm not a fan on any type of horror so the shift half way through had my anxiety sky rocketing. But I'm a guy that likes to finish what he starts so I watched it to the very end.

I feel like the music (or lack thereof) was incredibly suspenseful and had me hiding behind my hands in complete terror at what the protagonist was going to find next. I like the fact that it was just silent at some parts as it made the feel even creepier.

There was one scene that made me screech and cry like a banshee (I'll say it again- not a fan of horrors) which left me hiding behind my hands for the rest of the film singing the Go Compare advert to calm myself down.

I'd say if you want to watch this- be prepared. I knew it was gonna be creepy when I started but the film kinda makes you forget and then BAM you're pooing yourself. Needless to say I personally will probably not rewatch this film as I don't fancy crying in bed and messaging my friends at god awful times in the morning.

This review is all over the place I'm sorry it's 4AM and there are dried crusty tears on my face I'm a mess.

My god, have I been looking for a drama like this for a while.

Kamenashi Kazuya did an excellent job here. I absolutely love characters with eccentric personalities, and this takes the cake. I've seen a few dramas with him in before, but this is by far the best that I've seen.

The storyline is absolutely brilliant. It's a really good mix of mystery, comedy and angst. It was perfect in my opinion. There were jokes and laughs, but there was also a serious side to this drama which I fully enjoyed. Kazuya's character was incredibly well developed, as were the rest of the cast. I also liked the comedic references they added in, as well as the disgustingly large amount of cat puns that they used throughout.

The music was great too, with Kat-tun releasing a song for the drama. I also liked the fact that Yamaneko was a terrible singer.

Would I rewatch this drama? Definitely. Please give it a watch, you won't believe what's coming!

This show is- wow. Just wow. I've literally just finished watching and it is by far one of the best dramas I've seen so far (and I've seen a lot of those). Definitely in my top 5.

Originally, I did not expect much but I was oh so pleasantly surprised. With the series only being only 6.5 hours in total, I expected things to be rushed but it really wasn't. The drama had a very good flow and nothing felt like it was done half heartedly.

As for the acting itself, it's like you can feel what they are going through and the main cast had very moving performances. This drama is full of suspense and it made my heart race in certain parts.

Something that did amuse me though was how many times the two main characters stared at their hands angstily. Seriously, if you took a shot every time they did it, you'd be smashed by the end. It was over the top and I LOVED it. :D

Would I recommend this drama to you? Hell yes.

*Sorry if my review sucked it's my first time writing one and I'm so emotional right now, the drama was so good*

Okay before I start I just want to make clear that this MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS SO READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!

I just finished watching the movie literally 5 minutes ago and honestly it was amazing but not without some (rather minor tbh) flaws.

The acting of the cast was awesome, as always, and we got to see a bit more of Hyuuga, which was nice. I don't think I've ever actually seen him fight before as he's usually ordering people to do the fighting whilst he looks pretty high lmao. Each character started off by having an equal amount of screentime, however as the movie progresses, it feels like there is some time wasted on new characters which didn't really have anything to do with the plot.

Also, I feel like there was a lack in Kizzy/Kaito screen time. Considering half the movie was based around the White Rascals and Doubt, it would have been nice to see more of them - although maybe I am biased as I absolutely adore Kizzy and Kaito and their relationship.

Also, if you're hoping to see Smokey, prepare to be disappointed. The poor bean has less than 5 minutes of screentime and most of that time is spent with him walking around Nameless Street or sitting down (although to be fair he's looking damn aesthetically pleasing whilst doing it).

Ranmaru's character also felt kind of underdeveloped so I'm hoping for more of him in the next film as he has so much potential and I love twisted characters like him and dissecting them to see how they tick.

But overall, I think this film was still pretty damn awesome. The fights were well coordinated, there were no awkward background characters stood around whilst the main characters fought, the angst was beautiful as always and even though there are so many characters, everyone has their own personality which shines through and distinguishes them all. However, I felt that the car/van chase scene with the pendrive went on for a little too long in my opinion and I could feel myself zoning out but idk if that may be due to me having a low attention span whoops.

The music, by god the music, was fricking awesome. H&L has one of the best soundtracks I've ever heard, which is to be expected as pretty much all the cast are in the music industry. When I wasn't enthralled with the fighting scenes, I was bopping along to those sick tunes. I've actually downloaded a couple of the songs and now I definitely intend on downloading a couple more.

All in all, even with it's minor flaws, I still ADORED this film and it's definitely a must-watch. Even though at times it does kinda feel like a filler film, it still has its charms and it's adrenaline-fueled action and it'll certainly get you pumped up for the next film.

Well done H&L cast and crew! Keep the good work coming!!
