I reckon if you haven't seen the previous two entries some of the things may not really work for you. As a reviewer stated he thought many things were generic. I highly disagree, especially with the change of location. Now is it as good as the first Outrage? No it isn't, but does it conclude the whole thing in a very satisfying way? You bet it does.
There is a lot of violence but that is to be expected. There is also a lot of crazy connections and intriguing going on. People betraying others, but also some trying to do the honorable thing. Power corrupts ... absolute power corrupts absolutely. Or something along those lines. Also some things seem inevitable, like what goes around comes around. Karma is catching up most of the time - even when it feels not deservedly.

Conclusion
Generic
This was the same old same old generic Japanese-Korean crime syndicate/mafioso script of tie people to a chair and beat them then shoot them, etc. Lots of fake (look, dress, demeanor) tough people standing in the background for ambience. Lots of monied club and backroom and showy monied residences for backdrop. Characters & acting rote redundant as can be. zzzzzzz!
Finally over
A tired ending for Kitano's cynical yakuza trilogy. It has a simpler plot, a tighter pace, and even more famous old people, but grotesque moments aside, everything is too mediocre to be remembered. As I couldn't care for any of the characters, the bitter ending didn't bother me at all.
