Quentin Tarantino wrote "For most of the movie it looks like a Japanese Yakuza film, plays like a Italian gangster film, and has the fight every ten minutes pace of a Hong Kong chop socky pic, until suddenly, without any proper set up, we find ourselves into the beginning of the film’s extended climax."[3]
Plot
When Chin Fu shows up at a nightclub one night, no one realizes he is the son of a kung-fu master out for revenge for his father's murder. Chin teams up with a sexy lounge singer and heads out to infiltrate the Japanese mafia.

gollark: This seems to neglect any happiness you might get from not being utterly isolated in the meantime.
gollark: Or, well, a fairly high chance.
