Overall the movie is quite good, but a little strange in my opinion. The special effects are good and the acting is actually the best part for me. It is the first time I see Gackt act and he was very good, especially near the end. The drama tension and the sorrow felt real which is a plus for me since not every actor can make me sad with their acting. It has a lot of funny parts, so its very enjoyable. The bad thing is the price, but I end up getting it anyways. The songs are great too-which is a must- and the music soundtrack is included in one of the DVDs. ^o^

I love this movie!!! It's definitely worth buying, whoever is Hyde or Gackt fan! I preordered it, as soon as it was avaiable! I've always been a huge Gackt and Hyde fan,m but I've never really expected them to make a movie together. (though I've always wished for! ^_^) The movie is really good! Although the only thing I found a little bad was the music, it was just not enough. I don't know, but I would've appreciated a bigger soundtrack. In the end the movie was wonderful, though! The story was cute and the characters just great! It's really a must-have for fans!!! Rikku
Yes, this film does have action elements...many gunfights and spiffy-looking stunts fill a good portion of the film. Yet, I would say this is more drama than action; underneath all the shooting and fighting is a melancholy story about friendship and love with a vampire twist. It was the vampirism theme that drew me to this film so I wasn't sure how the singers, Gackt and Hyde, would fair in their acting. But they did a great job as well as the rest of the cast (and Hyde's Mandarin was pretty impressive). An overall great film.
