Sato's third entry in the series, and by now I feel like he's wasting his time with this one. And it may not even be the final one either, judging the mid-credit scene. Japan doesn't seem all that fit to make these kinds of war spectacles, certainly not when they slap on a slightly more serious tone.
The cinematography is a bit dull, the action scenes are too brawl-heavy, the characters are uninspired and two hours is a lot for a film that is pretty much stuck into some barren scenery. Each installment seems to be getting progressively worse, let's hope they stop here, or they find a director who can liven things up a bit.
