4.0 out of 5 starsPost pub perfection
By Mr. D. D. Campbell on 1 Oct. 2003
Format: DVD Verified Purchase
This film has everything. Starting as a fairly routine though slick yakuza thriller, this gets weirder by the minute, as school children and strippers join the crew, all with ingenious and often inspired assassination techniques. Being a Takashi Miike film (he of Audition and Full Metal Yakuza fame), it is shot with trademark style, with some incredible editing enhancing the action, which is all as violent as one would expect from one of his films. Pleasing also is the wicked streak of dark humour that runs through this film, something that is often missing from his other films, and which makes this all the more enjoyable. Its characters and invention will keep you laughing to the end, provided you have the stomach for it.
The DVD itself comes in a fairly naff box, brought to you by Eastern Cult cinema, along with their usual extras (Biographies, filmographies, stills and trailers) - good effort, but no reward.It does come in anamorphic widescreen though, and it all looks lovely.

4.0 out of 5 starsGonzo, comic-book style Yakuza action, the Takashi Miike way.
By Jonathan James Romley on 1 Mar. 2008
Format: DVD
Fudoh: The New Generation (1996) is something of a precursor to director Miike Takashi's later, more iconic cult Yakuza thriller, Dead or Alive (1999). Like that particular film, Fudoh finds Miike at his most full on and outrageous; letting his imagination and brutal sense of humour run riot in order to elevate something that could have quite easily become another run-of-the-mill, straight-to-video Japanese crime-picture, into a gonzo, comic-book style slab of chic exploitation. As with many of the director's other feature films, such as the aforementioned Dead or Alive, as well as Full Metal Yakuza (1997) and Ichi the Killer (2001), Fudoh is notable for its scenes of excessive violence, incredibly dark humour and moments of absurd abandon; something that occasionally jars against the more realistic elements of the plot.

As is perhaps evident from the presentation of the film, the story of Fudoh is adapted from a Japanese anime series, and - in keeping with this idea - the film often has the feel of a live-action cartoon; with the violence and combat exaggerated to an almost comical degree while the characters remain more like ironic caricatures than anything approaching believable human beings. This will obviously alienate some viewers who aren't perhaps as well prepared for the later bursts of over the top violence and unconventional humour; especially since the earlier scenes of the film seem to suggest something more serious or dramatic; reminding me in those early sequences of Miike's subsequent pictures, Shinjuku Triad Society (1996), Rainy Dog (1997) and Ley Lines (1999).Read more ›

4.0 out of 5 starsI never thought the human body can hold so much blood
By Jenny on 25 Nov. 2007
Format: DVD
A Takashi Miike is always worth looking out for, and this one was highly anticipated. It's one of his earlier Yakuza movies, but still very Miike in approach that was highly recommend to me by another great reviewer by the name of Dave K. We open innocently enough with young Riki Fugoh playing catch with his beloved brother Ryu. The entire family, however, is yakuza. After Ryu retaliates for the actions of the rival Nioh gang, the boys' dad kills Ryu to save his own neck. Young Riki, is not amused.

Ten years later, Riki (Shosuke Tanihara) is the smartest, best-looking kid in his high school. He also runs the place with the aid of his own gang comprised of fellow students. With the aid of eight-year-old hit men and schoolgirl strippers and assassins, it looks like Riki could have his revenge on the anniversary of his brother's death, but dear old dad may not go down so easily.

Shock value and native Japanese weirdness aside, this is a great movie. It looks great. Whatever the content, each shot is carefully composed and the action is often so manic it can be had to keep up with. As unemotional as the Japanese can be, "Fudoh" turns into the nastiest family squabble since "Medea". The parenting skills of the eldest Fudoh make Christopher Walken in "At Close Range" look like father of the year. Also into the mix comes man mountain Akira, played by wrestler Kenji Takano who must be the biggest guy in Japan! Even allowing for simple tricks like standing him next to short people, putting him on a box and filming from the waist up (the sort of stuff they do with Robbie Coltrane in the Harry Potter movies) it's clear that this guy is huge! Still, the most notable aspect is that just when you think the film can't get any weirder, it's just getting started.Read more ›
