I actually found this movie rather flatline, to be honest.
Specifically, I guess I would say that it felt like a long version of any ZG short, with the same thing either being drawn out, or happening repeatedly. The fight scenes were choreographed quite well, but I have a HARD time getting anyone who isn't a martial artist to even finish watching this movie, and I can understand why.
In addition, it is obviously very difficult to create dynamism without dialogue in many instances, and this movie, because of its style, proved this again.
Again, this wasn't my least favorite piece of film from ZG by any means. I just think that it could have been shorter and still said the same thing, while making a larger impact (due to retention of attention on behalf of the viewer).
