Outrage (Autoreiji) 2010

The plot concerns a struggle for power amongst Tokyo's Yakuza clans, today just as likely to be playing the stock market as shaking down pachinko parlors, over which the Sanmo-kai clan holds sway in the face of constant betrayal and ever-changing allegiances. The Sanmo-kai chairman learns that his henchman Ikemoto has struck an alliance with the drug-dealing Murase family, and is not best pleased, to say the least. The ensuing retaliation triggers an orgy of killings, territorial invasions and score settling while law enforcement officers are too corrupt to intervene.

JDramaMama's Rating: B

I LOVE Kitano! I swear, that man can do anything and he is in fine form as a ruthless yakuza. There is plenty of blood, mayhem and murder so don't expect anything less (after all, it's organized crime.) All in all it's good entertainment and nobody can be as bad ass as Kitano.
