Review of Keizoku - Beautiful Dreamer

The movie picks up from the SP where it ends with Mayama (Watabe) being stabbed by Shibata (Nakatani) when she was under the hynoptic influence of Asakura. We know from the beginning that Mayama survived and is very much alive-and-kicking. Shibata also regained her senses and remembered all that has happened between her and Mayama.

A new case comes their way where they are asked to attend a party hosted by Kirishima Nanami (Koyuki), the daughter of a couple who died in a capsized ship incident 15 years ago. She has invited the survivors of this accident to take part in this party including Shoko (Okouchi Nanako), the daughter of one of the participants who had come to ask for the police to attend the party together. They head to Yakujin Island where there's a castle overlooking the sea. Nanami prepares a feast for them and during a card game, she predicts that one of the survivors would die and this really happened. Although everyone knows that she is the murderer, they do not have any proof thus Shibata and Mayama cannot arrest her. The survivors die one by one and things get missing too as Shibata tries to understand what is going on.

The case itself is quite engaging but this is just part of the major plot in this movie. As the title suggests, this movie has got something to do with dreams. After Shibata and Mayama solves the case, they are caught in a simulated dream by Asakura where they are almost tricked by the people they wish to be with most i.e. Shibata's true father and Mayama's younger sister who had already died. I wouldn't go into the ending but I must say that I'm glad it ended well. And since there's a clear ending, I doubt the series would be making any comeback in the near future.
