Forced
into exile from Japan, Aniki Yamamoto is forced to flee to the United
States to hide out with his younger brother. But soon after he takes up
his former job as a mob boss and begins to build an empire. But nothing
last forever, soon rivals will start fighting back and there is no
stopping when gangs are at war.

This is such a cool movie and the basic principals, although splattered
with the blood of many a men, are honorable and you can learn a lesson.
I was very impressed by the writer/director/star of the film who yes if
you watch Spike TV, you have seen his face on the slandered Takeshi's
Castle AKA Most Extreme Elimination Challenge. MUST SEE!!!!
Rating: 4 1/2 of 5 stars
