Synopsis

This film is the prolific auteur, Takashi Miike, at his most fun and anarchic, a noir-tinged yakuza film blending genres in the story of a young boxer and a call girl, who fall passionately in love while getting innocently caught up in a drug-smuggling scheme over the course of one night in Tokyo.

Critics

open_quote A first-rate cast, dynamic action, slapstick comedy and a cool animated sequence. Think Kill Bill meets Baby Driver as this carnage of chaos proves to be wildly entertaining. close_quote The Victoria Advocate


open_quote Rich in components of fear, revenge, anger, and sweetness, Miike delivers a pure knockout in his latest film. close_quote Marisa Mirabal, Slashfilm


open_quote it's way more entertaining than it should be. close_quote Michael O'sullivan, Washington Post
