In my top 5 of Takashi Miike's films, 27 May 2005
9/10
Author: movieman_kev from United States

A prequel to Miike's "Young Thugs: Innocent Blood", this follows Riichi in his early formative years growing up on his way to becoming the thug in the earlier film. One of the very few problems I had with Innocent Blood is the lack of in depth characterization, but that's remedied here in spades. Filled to the brim with the joys, heartbreaks, and wonder of childhood. the movie is universal in it's appeal and a true joy to behold. One of my favorite foreign coming-of-age films. This only solidifies the nothing that Miike can do much more then the violent, bizarre films that he's primarily known for.
