Query: all style - no substance

like most current ghost and horror movies coming out of japan, in "pulse", almost nothing happens and what does is incomprehensible. some reviewers have raved about this flick being a masterpiece of a metaphor about the fragmentation of interpersonal relationship at least partially caused by the internet. if so, i missed the boat. it is all style, no substance, but the style of many of the images: deserted, burning gray tokyo, the grimy interiors and exteriors of housing, the horticultural workplace of some of the protagonists, the university computer room, the deserted factory, can be compelling, hence the two stars.
