À propos de ce film

The 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.

Notes et avis

This is a very toned down takeshi movie. It's got a very easy to follow storyline with some decent characters. The action isn't as hectic as I'm used to from this director nor as gory but it wouldn't have fit the narrative. Good all around.
