For a second I thought this was a Korean movie even though there's a 20 episode drama out there. I thought it was the guy who played in Uncanny Counter which led me to Netflix to watch it. I had to do a double take when I heard Japanese so I went and did a little research and learned it's not the guy from Uncanny Counter but I watched it because it showed some fighting scenes.

I'm always drawn to movies and dramas that have fighting in it for some odd reason...

Anyway, this movie lacked purpose for me. I had to stop it at one point and have just now finished watching it.

It started off in the middle and stayed that way until the end. I had no idea who the City Hunter was, how he came to be, and why was he called the City Hunter.

Then there's the reason for this movie....a female is looking for her sister so I'm guessing the City Hunter was a PI with skills.

I got the gist of people getting enhanced drugs that was supposed to be banned from a certain war and a union is trying to bring it back and weaponize it but why? What's the purpose?

This was an almost 2 hour movie with so many plot holes that I'm wondering how did it make it to where it gets to be on Netflix?

The comedy was overly done. I didn't laugh at all. The sexual innuendos were unnecessary. The plot was weak...

Come on Japan...you can do better!
