Comments: I was mislead by a review into thinking this would be nasty violence. I never saw Blood of Wolves. Nice poster with Tori Matsuzaka looking like a cool crazy killer. Turns out he's kinda the good guy.

Next time I'm in the mood for some nasty violence I'm going straight to the Koreans. This is wussy whackin shit. On top of that, it's bad. Imagine a group of 11 year boys shooting their first cops and robbers movie. This film is executed at that level.

"Let's get a shot of you looking cool smoking a cigarette, and then scream all your lines. It'll be intense"

I skipped the third act because that when they do story and fighting. Surprise!

Summary: Set several years after The Blood Of Wolves and Ogami Shogo's death in the Western city of Hiroshima, the detective's plan to surround and control the yakuza low-lives has been implemented and is working. Much bloodshed and potential death has been prevented. However, the release of one criminal element places everything in jeopardy.
