Day 103 - Beyond Outrage (Japanese)


"The film begins with two anti-corruption detectives observing the discovery of dead human bodies in a car being recovered from the bottom of a harbor. The detectives suspect that the drowned bodies are related to the recent gang war and power struggle at the huge Sanno-kai crime syndicate which covers a large portion of eastern Japan. The new Grand Yakuza leader of Sanno-kai, Kato, must now reform his standing with the powerful rival Hanabishi-kai crime syndicate of western Japan. Otomo (Beat Takeshi), a former Yakuza, is serving time in a maximum security prison after falling out of favor with Sekiuchi, the former Grand Yakuza before Kato took control."

The sequel to the awesome Outrage, this film continue to impress me and prove that it is a great movie. There is a little less gruesome kills in this sequel but there are moments were the killing is severe and so funny to see. Otomo is back as a man on a warpath when he didn't even want to do it until his former family sent assassins to kill him. Beat Kitano proves that he gives credit as a remarkable director and should have in the running for the academy award.


3.6/5
