There's a war going on, but that won't stop an inexperienced film crew from following their dreams of making the ultimate action epic. Ten years ago, yakuza mid-boss Ikegami led an assault against rival don Muto. Now, on the eve of his revenge, all Muto wants to do is complete his masterpiece, a feature film with his daughter in the starring role, before his wife is released from prison. And the crew is standing by with the chance of a lifetime: to film a real, live yakuza battle to the death...on 35mm!

This film is an absolute riot. It's ridiculous, hilarious, brutally violent, and unapologetically strange. While this film will certainly not be for everyone, it was right up my alley. It's a film you can't take seriously, but you can have a lot of fun with. I absolutely recommend this film, particularly to fans of the films of Takashi Miike ("Audition", "As the Gods Will") or other Japanese cult directors. I will probably work my way through Sono's filmography until I make it to his four-hour epic, "Love Exposure".

The main characters who are amateur filmmakers watch a trailer they have made for their own film called "The Blood of Wolves", though they haven't actually made the movie itself yet, and never do. That was the working title of a movie later called Kenkichi (2012), that Sion Sono and Tak Sakaguchi were working on around the same time as this film. That film Kenkichi was also never made.
