I watched only about half of the movie so far, will finish it later. There's quite a lot of old style dialogue which is fairly difficult to follow with limited Japanese fluency. There are a lot of plot twists and turns. The PQ is a bit soft especially in the darker scenes, very clean look. Not sure if some kind of filtering has been applied.

Some background info on the movie:
