    I enjoyed this movie a bit, thought it had a pretty good story and enjoyed the acting from both Viggo Mortensen and Ryo Ishibashi. Pretty good movie...

    This movie is soooo bad. Even Viggo's acting isn't great, but I suspect it's a result of bad direction, because he was very good in movies before this one. He looks great though!

    Viggo is good in this movie but i honestly doubt the Yakuza would except an American in to their family.
