Yakuza Weapon Blu-Ray Review
Synopsis: The team who brought you "Versus" have returned with another hard-edged battle royale featuring tough gangsters, deadly women and cybernetic penis implants! Ex-yakuza Shozo Iwaki (Tak Sakaguchi) engages in a titanic battle of revenge against double-crossing Kurawaki, the man who killed his father. After a building-leveling skirmish, Shozo wakes up with an M61 Vulcan cannon in place of his right arm, and a rocket launcher where his left leg used to be. Shozo quickly learns to love his weaponized frame, and prepares for a bloody rematch with Kurawaki, who has some mechanical improvements of his own. Co-directed by Yudai Yamaguchi and Tak Sakaguchi, creators of action-filled comedies like "Battlefield Baseball", "Cromartie High School" and "Be A Man! Samaurai School", and based on an adult comic by Ken Ishikawa, ("Cutie Honey", "GetterRobot" and more), "Yakuza Weapon" combines hard-boiled gangster action, manga-style comedy and splatterific special effects. Tough as nails, armed to the teeth, pissed-off and looking for a fight, "Yakuza Weapon" is coming to kick your ass.
Review: Yakuza Weapon is the latest martial arts epic starring the man..the legend: Tak Sakaguchi. This film is a typical asian martial arts revenge flick that turns into an absolute blood orgy. I don't say that lightly, this film has everything you want...it is an absolute dream and I cannot recommend it enough.
The special features on this blu-ray include: Making-of, Tokyo Stage Greeting, Director's Discussion, Spinoff Film "Takuzo Weapon", Trailers.
