Synopsis
An American FBI agent is lured away by the Japanese Mafia--the Yakuza--in this wall-to-wall action film. When Agent Nick Davis (Mortensen) is sent by the FBI to infiltrate the Yakuza's American branch, he finds himself quickly progressing and gaining acceptance into the family. Soon, his loyalties begin to fray when they are tested in conflicts with the Italian Mafia and an FBI force.

1.0 out of 5 stars Avoid, 12 Nov 2005
This film is an abomination and should have been smote from existence a long time ago.

Do not buy or rent this film.

4.0 out of 5 stars Worth watching......, 7 Jan 2009
By Ross Symonds "BF Addict" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Mortensen makes this work, and plays a similar role in 'Eastern Promise' 2008. Doesnt deserve 1 star from the idiot who 'reviewed' this previously, so felt obliged to speak out. Speaking as someone who usually watches subbed Asian cinema (lots in fact) but couldnt be bothered to read subtitles one night, it was a pleasant surprise. Some nice camerawork, choreography & a few great performances far outweigh the many cultural errors & cliches within. Wouldnt want to own it, but watch it if you get the chance. 6.8 out of 10.
