Tsukamoto has made some awesome films over the years but this one left me a bit disappointed. My main issue was the lead detective played by Hitomi (an idol). No idea if it was intentional but her acting was glorious shit tier - from the moment where she striked her "thinking-pose" she became distracting. The whole movie was rather "live action adaptation" looking despite being an original idea and and his trademark style was rather toned down. What saved it for me was the dream-sequence towards the end which is what I actually wanted to see more of.
