This is the story of a yakuza member who goes off to be a mercenary in South America, and returns to find the criminal underworld run by his enemies.
While this movie has some funny parts, and the story has some level of potential, it is just so poorly made. The film quality is bad, the special effects are bad, the CGI is bad.
The only film I can remotely compare this to is "Machine Girl", with one big difference: Machine Girl is awesome, and this film is awful. Fans of Asian sci-fi may enjoy it, I am not sure. But I just found practically nothing redeeming in it.
My suggestion is to avoid this.
