Review of Sonatine (1993) by David J — 30 Apr 2016
In "Sonatine," Takeshi Kitano mixes dark humor and gang shoot-outs to thrilling and refreshing results, but there's a disappointing lack of character development. In this world, characters need not emotional depth because they're usually violently and coldly killed off before you really get to know them, but I wish we knew a bit more about the protagonist.
Regardless, if you enjoy films like "Snowpiercer" and "In Bruges," you're going to get a kick out of this one.
