Young And Dangerous is the best Asian gangster movies but if you don't understand Chinese you gotta watch it in sub-titles but the whole series is fucking dope.
juss seen an old ass movie..pretty dope....they talked about the korean mafia in k-town...the movie was called "The Perfect Weapon." tihnk its really more of a martial arts movie but theytalk abuot the korean mafia
Check for shit like Ichi the Killer, Fudoh, City of Lost Souls sick shit all by the directer Takashi Miike. Also certain ones by Beat Takeshi like Brother are alright.
They're all by the same Takeshi. Takeshi Kitano. For some reason he uses a whole bunch of aliases but they all have Takeshi in them. He's made some pretty badass movies. His older movies are awesome. He knows a LOT about Yakuza.
For real??? I though Miike was a different dude. You know he started out a comedian right? and that twitch he got in his face now is from when he went head first through the windshield in a accident.
You're right. My bad. I know Takeshi Kitano uses a bunch of aliases so I just assumed they were the same guy. You know the show MXC? It's originally called Takeshi's Castle, and guess who's the host.
Brother is a badass movie man i can watch that shit over and over...i know theres a book and a dokumentary kalled "Confessions of a Triad" never seen it but im bout to kop the dvd...
If you are into Triad movies, watch Young And Dangerous. There were also many other low profile titles such as Family Honor and etc... These mostly potray the Triads. If you look for movies that were produced by Charles Heung, who is also a famous Triad member from Sun yee on, some of his movie have that big potraying on how Triads really are.
