Personal Ratings: 3
Really could not have guessed that they used poker cards to link to this murder case. 
No one would have known who was the culprit unless you watched until the end. Again, i really love how they linked the incident 10 years ago (Ran's mother got shot by father) to the last part where Conan (Kudo Shinichi), also shot Ran to save her. 
Not as much humor was the last movie (there is hardly any), but really filled with much tension till the end. 

One thing that i did not really liked in this movie was that when the murders started, it started to get more and more confusing as everything was going at a very high-paced speed. At that point of time i was really confused by everything; as it was hard to take in everything. But than it was necessary to understand everything before you can see how everything is connected. Wished they could slow down at that part and cut of some of the irrelevant parts.
