Hakaider is easily my favorite of the Amemiya flicks I've seen (the others being thZeiram, Zeiram 2, and Moon Over Tao). I'm surprised you call it a emss - I find it very lean and to-the-point, and it is absolutely gorgeous.
I'm generally sympathetic to anarchist messages, though.

Tokyo, a smoldering memorial to the unknown, an unknown which at this very moment still prevails and could at any time lash out with its terrible destruction anywhere else in the world.

Hakaider has a ton of fans so you're not alone there. I've always just found it to be a case of style over substance. To be fair, that's a complaint that could be said against most of Amemiya's work. Just doesn't work as well for me here as in Kamen Rider Zo or Zeriam (my two favorite Amemiya films).
I do really like the new Hakaider design though. I hope they kind of stick to that in the new Kikaider film.
