Review by TooKakkoiiforYou_321

To say I'm not a fan of the director and main writer of this it's an understatement, I've watched some of his pornographic-exploitation movies like Sex and Fury, School of The Holy Beast, Terrifying girls' high school when I started getting more into japanese movies a couple of years ago and I didn't like them in any way. But the first Red Peony movie was written sufficiently well, and this is more or less well directed too especially towards the end, where there are some poignant and well-done shots. The only real grievances of this movie are the supposedly comic reliefs in the form of two guys who want to be Oryu's henchmen and are not funny in any way (like some stupid scenes with Oryu's legal brother's sister under the shower aren't) and the fact that the story more or less is a bit muddled until the second half kicks in, but for the rest this movie is as enjoyable as the first one. Still not masterpiece material, but enjoyable and fun nonetheless. Hands down the best movie the guy made in his entire life, no questions attached.
