Product Description

Kinji Fukasaku directs Tetsuya Watari in this tale of a sociopathic loser named Ishikawa, whose self-destructive tendencies cause him to betray every chance he is given in life. After he attacks a prostitute owned by a rival gang, Ishikawa is reprimanded by his own boss and responds by stabbing him to within an inch of his life. Luckily being spared a gangland execution, Ishikawa is then ordered into an Osaka exile for the next ten years, where he quickly descends into drug use and whoring. Throughout all this, Ishikawa's sometime girlfriend Cheiko (Yumi Takigawa) remains the one person who truly cares for him.

4.0 out of 5 stars Yakuzas "The Fukusaku-style" 2 May 2003
By Jose Luis Romeu Miguel
Kinji Fukasaku is worldwide known for his Yakuza movies, different from the typical overall view the cinema had from Yakuzas. This movie is a good example of how far some yakuzas are from honor or pride.

Fukasaku films Jingi no hakaba (Graveyard of Honor) as a mockumentary (fake documentary) which gives more emphasis to the actual yakuza situation. This movie follows the story of Ishikawa, the archetypical post-war gangster (as it's defined in the film). The character development is great, and very surprising. However, you may loose the plot in some points if you don't have an overall knowledge of the Yakuza organization.

In conclusion, a very entertaining gangster movie the Japanese way. I hugely recommend for anyone looking for the roots of most of the Japanese and Hong Kongese gangsters movies nowadays (Takashi Miike, Takeshi Kitano, John Woo, etc.), you won't get disappointed.

The DVD has good picture & sound quality, sometimes the telecine can seem a little bit poor, but the overall is correct.
