Director: Takashi Miike
Writer: Ichiro Ryu
Langauage: Japanese
Its the first film of the Dead or Alive trilogy directed by Takashi Miike. Its essentially what you expect from him-great action with plenty of gore most of the time leading to comedic effect for those who have a sense of humor. The first five minutes of the film is full of violent energy and the climax of the film is hilarious. In between there is a story of a Japanese cop and a Yakuza of Chinese descent going against the Japanese Yakuza and finally squaring off with each other. The story has been done to death in many films but Miike does it in a style of his own.
Rating: 3.5/5
