I enjoyed this one, couldn't stop watchin it. Good story, great soundtrack, fantastic cast (especially funnyman Kato Koji acting in a serious role) and a wicked ending. Just watch it.

Synopsis
Tetsuo Nagai is a probation officer. His job is to rehabilitate young offenders and get them on the straight and narrow. Married with one son, he lives a happy life. All that changes one day when his wife is murdered and his son is gravely injured in an attack. Nagai wrestles with the assailant, but he escapes. Nagai takes his son to the hospital run by his father-in-law, but his son is again attacked and left in a coma. Nagai is interrogated by police detectives and finds himself the chief suspect due to the emergence of a number of pieces of unfavorable evidence. Is someone setting him up? At the verge of giving up, he is struck by another option - he becomes a fugitive, striving to prove his innocence and find the real killer while his son hovers at deaths' door.

I really sympathized with the leading actor's character, he did a convincing job for this bad luck happaned to good guy plot.
It was very entertaining, I might not recommand owning it...But yes!!! Watch it, it's worth the 9 hours investment!

Some of the things in there wouldn't have worked in America but then again, it's a different country with different cultures. But overall, it succeeded in keeping me in suspense and the pace was fast throughtout.
