Title: Former cinematic genius goes soft.
Review: Back in the 90's Shinya Tsukamoto burst onto the scene with the explosive Tetsuo the Iron Man and the riveting study of ultraviolence Tokyo Fist.Over the years his films have become more coherant but also less interesting.Vital retains a little of his visual energy though unfortunately the story about a man with amnesia who discovers he's dissecting his lost love at a college isn't very compelling.There are some nice dream sequences but the film lacks the energy and sheer creative force of Tsukamoto's earlier films.
