YMMV / The Returner

• Broken Base: according to the Internet forums it's either an "awesome movie" or "stupid ripoff of x" ("x" being every sci-fi movie you could name.)
• Complete Monster: Mizoguchi is an insane and violent Yakuza boss who steals children to harvest their organs. Having done this to hero Miyamoto's childhood friend, Mizoguchi partners with the Triads to gain absolute power and world domination. Killing anyone who gets in his way, including his own men, Mizoguchi betrays his allies and attempts to kickstart a war between the Daggra aliens and mankind by killing a Daggra baby, all for the sake of fun and profit.
• Evil Is Cool: the irredeemably evil Mizoguchi gives a definite Joker-vibe.
• Foe Romance Subtext: Miyamoto has been obsessing about Mizoguchi for years and after easily blowing his way through Mizoguchi's army of mooks he hesitates in killing him. And Mizoguchi is definitely In Love With His Carnage (and that he feels the need to grope and "assert his dominance" over every female he comes across kind of suggests he's Compensating for Something.)
• Fridge Logic:
  • How powerful is the Triad that it had access to a government facility??
  • And then there's the Time Loop thing...
