Storyline

Hiroshima Police detective Ogami Shogo and his partner Hioka Shuichi are investigating the disappearance of a company's employees amidst an escalating yakuza turf war in 1988. Blood, shooting and death is everywhere. At the same time, there is a suspicion that the former man has his own ties to the thugs. Certainly many of his methods and actions are thuggish, violent and should be illegal. Written by aghaemi

Damn so Cruel
24 April 2019 | by Ricky-ikhtifar – See all my reviews

Clashes between gangsters every scene has a cruel, sadistic and psycho. like one of the first shots to take pig manure and a man was forced to eat it as part of torture. making us almost loss of appetite, visually every clutter looks realistic in every dispute. so a great movie and the scene was tension
