Yakuza tale set in America Ex-yakuza member starts a new life in America , and gets back to his old ways

A generation apart from Goodfellas, The Godfather trilogy and similar films but expertly written, creatively cast and acted to perfection by all. Simply wonderful viewing with a message for the viewer. Doesn't matter how hard you hit, there's always somebody bigger and harder around the corner!

Brother like many other Takeshi Kitano films it is a gangster related action film the film itself is worth a 7 out of 10 but it's Kitanos witty dry almost British humour in his films that brings him up a notch, in this film the scene where he is betting on whether a man or woman comes round the corner scene, no spoilers u gotta check it out. Just like his other films with action great directing but mainly his cheeky banter and professional acting skills that makes the film. If you likes his 93 film sonatine this film is on par with that , but even better if you prefer less subtitles as its set in us only half is subtitles but to me I love my world cinema so it is all good. This film is definitely a good Friday night watch . .
