- VectorLock 2y agoIf you like Beat Takeshi I can't recommend his "Outrage" trilogy enough.
- juliusgeo 2y agoThe outrage trilogy is amazing, I would also recommend Sonatine and Hana-bi.
- JoblessWonder 2y agoIn 2003 I was first unknowingly introduced to Takeshi Kitano on MXC on Spike. That fall in a Japanese film class I saw him in Sonatine which remains one of my favorite movies. Then in the spring of 2004 Zatoichi was released and I saw it in theaters. I had a year in my life where Takeshi Kitano was *everywhere*.
