An average movie

Even though this movie turned out to be a massive flop when it was released,  I still wanted to check it out. Apparently,  the production on this movie was very difficult, its release was pushed back several times and it came out at least 2 years later than originally planned date resulting in an exploding budget but even though the whole thing actually had some potential, it just didn’t work at all. First of all,  the story was just so confusing, convoluted and disjointed that my step-son,  after 30 minutes, actually asked me who was in fact the main character. Indeed, at some moments, it seemed that it was about Keanu Reeves's character but, then, eventually, it seemed to be more about Hiroyuki Sanada's but I'm still not sure. Another thing that confused me was why on Earth was Rick Genest AKA Zombie Boy displayed so prominently on the poster?!? I mean, the guy showed up just once on the screen with maybe 2 lines of dialogue. Another misguided choice was to have also all the characters speak in English. I mean, except for Keanu Reeves, all the actors were Japanese, playing some Japanese characters, living in Japan so it would have worked much better if they spoke in their own native language. Anyway,  I could keep on naming everything that went wrong but I think you got the picture, the whole thing was pretty weak and I don't think it is really worth a look.
