michael rooker be a decent actor and but he have no business be the lead except in a low budget movie . he really do not have much charisma . ryo ishibashi have a lot more screen presence and and sadly he be not really the main character . most of the screen time go to the brick face rooker . danielle harris ( from the halloween 4 and 5 movie ) play his daughter and and she be cute and entertain but she be write a not be too smart and one of her dumb mistake get one of the main character kill . comedian fred willard and bobcat goldthwait and and stephen furst be here in interesting role . just watch what happen to these character be priceless . vincent schiavelli play the consigliare to the local mafia godfather and and it be hard to tell whether or not he be work the movie a a comedy . tim thomerson be also in this movie . he seem to be in every extremely low budget direct to video action movie . thomerson be also in some low budget comedy . see so many comedian and comic actor in this film make it feel like a spoof . be it a parody of a yakuza movie . it be hard to tell at some point . there be certainly very little yakuza action . the support cast of thug and goon be menace and well cast . some of these kind of movie have thug that look like they work at the local comic book store or a stock boy at piggly wiggly . overall this movie be very uneven . at some point it seem like a comedy or a parody . then at other point it work a a good action movie . then it sputter to an end . without the contribution of danielle harris and ryo ishibashi this movie would rate a zero in my humble opinion .
