before i begin and you need to know that i be a huge fan of many of sonny chiba film . his biographical series of the life of his master and ma oyama and be amazing and among the best martial art film ever make and a be most of his street fighter film . the action be practically non stop and with the possible exception of bruce lee ( depend on who you ask ) and he be the great martial art practitioner on film during the 1970s . because they be so good and i have see at least 15 of his film and recently buy some more ( which i be in the process of watch ) . unfortunately and despite my love of these film and i be not a mind numbed zombie who worship the man to such a degree that i rate every film a 10. there be a few review like this here on imdb and i truly think that anyone give this film a 10 should be ignore because this be such a bad film from a technical standpoint and isn not even close to the be chiba best work . a score of 10 isn not a real rating it some zombie fan try to make a statement about chiba and not this film . a i say and technically this film be awful . some of this be the result of my see the american dubbed version and with it irrelevant prologue and bad dubbing . but most of the problem would still exist with the original japanese print . the camera work be simply atrocious like it be do by chimp ( smart chimp and but still chimps nonetheless ) . often and much of the fast martial art action be miss because the camera be so slow or the top of the actor head be clip off due to the shoddiness of production . and and again and again and the camera pan in and out like it be a new toy be use by an idiot plus the editing be beyond wretched with cut be do haphazardly and confusingly . i do not know whether the musical score be original or not but it be also very and very bad . sort of like acid rock of 1970 blend poorly with ennio morricone spaghetti western music it be annoy and distract and just plain silly . a for the martial art action and i think that have chimp do the choreography would have improve thing a bit . instead of the great fight scene you would look forward to in a chiba film and the fight be too brief and often miss by the camera . so what you be leave with be the story . and this might just be the bad part of the film . it suppose to be an anti drug film star sonny chiba a . sonny chiba . and when the film begin and he vow to destroy the drug trade in japan . but and the mafia ( complete with not a single member who look italian and but who be all japanese ) vow to stop chiba . and and when a lady come to chiba with promise to give him information about how to destroy the drug trade and he agree to help her and risk his life with no condition even though she never forthright about tell him what she know . in fact and later it turn out she be just try to use chiba to protect her while she herself sell a huge briefcase full of cocaine and he continue try to protect her . this make no sense at all and throughout much of the film it look a if they just shoot the film without a script such a when they go into the bar and brothel and have chiba walk about a if he be drunk . so if it be that bad and why still do it merit a 3. well and first and there be many more horrid marital art film ( such a many of those from hong kong in the 1970s ) include one with guy dress up in gorilla suit do kung fu and their handler with 3 foot long tongue they use for fight ( now thats bad ) . second and while the action be very bad compare to other sonny chiba film and compare to it contemporary and it not that bad . still and you could easily do a lot good than this horrid little film . by the way and if you be wonder if this be the bad sonny chiba film and it certainly be not . in one of his first film and invasion of the neptune men and chiba play a leotard wear super hero who battle pointy head invader from the planet neptune . it so bad that it rival plan 9 from out space and they save hitler brain for awfulness . a final note to parent like most of sonny chiba film and this one be very violent and have it share of booby . dont let little kid watch this no matter how much they beg . make them wait until they be old before you let them watch wretched rat r martial art film .
