Casshern – The fantasy world

Confession of Pain (2006) The story is typical, and you can even tell the whole story after the first 15 minutes. But then, “Confession of Pain” with its Cause n’ Effect style still keeps you watching till the end. And you will probably find it’s painful just like me. There’s some pains that cannot be cured easily. The cast is just awesome: Tony...
