Customer Reviews

Exploitation anyone?
I didn't really get this movie but will try to explain it.

Chiba is a ninja and is really tough and some guy hires him and a couple other tough people to steal cocaine from the mafia. They finally find where they are after a couple of run-ins and have their showdown. Yasuaki Kurata makes a cameo and proves again why I named him best screen fighter ever when he is under woo ping. Not under woo ping here but looks touger than pretty much anyone I have seen on screen.

So the story is less than average, though Chiba's childhood scenes are unuasual yet really cool. But you are going to love this movie for many reasons. Tons of nudity, Chiba ripping ribs out of people and bashing their eyeballs out. But the movie does have it's downfalls, there is a scene where Chiba falls off of a cliff, so he throws an anchor up to land so he can pull himself up. It catches on a guys leg and for the next 5 minutes yuu get to watch Chiba pull himself up while this guy struggles. I really struggled to watch this part. But you just don't get better than Sonny Chiba, do you?

I have the widescreened, english dub, so-so picture Crash Cinema version of this. It is part of the Kill Chiba 3-pack. Just can't get enoguh of him. :)
