Review of 1-Ichi (2003) by Daniel P — 26 Jul 2010

I thought I had downloaded Ichi The Killer, after recalling to mind, several sturdy reccomendations from trusted sources, and it wasn't until long after I had finished devouring 1-Ichi, that I realized, that what I had seen was actually the prequel, rather than the Main Event. And now I sat here, drinking vodka, listening to the song which launches as the End credits bring a close to the weird, brutal action on screen...i fucking love this song. And I equally adored the film.

Its strange. But then again, so are the Japs. Not just the script, the action, but the cinematogrophy, are seriously fierce, in your face, likely to shake the very foundations of any mormons stupid enough to touch such dynamite.

I will not surmise the plot, or say any more, other than...WATCH THIS FILM. For its by far one of the best I have seen for many centuries...

Daniel Rating 9/10.
