A Princesa da Yakuza

First half of the movie is gold then from the point where they arrive at the farm one can stop watching because its just bad ..... It starts like a true blockbuster then it goes to a grade B movie and it pisses you off you wachet the first half of the movie just to get crap in the second half.

2 amazing actors: Jonathan Rhys Meyers & Tsuyoshi Ihara , manage to deliver amazing performance but the director and the rest of cast are week and the script is trash and not even this guys with there great performance can not save this trash of a movie and the talent of this two great actors is just waisted.

One should only watch half of the movie and it will not be desapointed .

Movie gived a first good half and it gets half of the stars .

1st Oscar, best editing, anyone can make a 50 minutes movie to 120 minutes long should win an Oscar.

2nd Oscar, best artress, she has the perfect consistancy to keep the same face without any expression for 120 mins, even Mary Streep had never achieved that.

Still have no idea why I rated this garbage 3 stars. I just want to see some Japanese killing some people, but everyone just keep talking and talking and pretenting to be Leon the professional. Your best choice is skip this movie, no $hit!!

Yakuza's plot had potential, even though Rhys Meyer's character was random. But it didn't capitalize on anything - the fighting is meh, the acting is meh, and it's not that fun to watch.

I've watched several Japanese Yakuza movies and I love all the mysticism and the legends. This movie its quite decent. Far from the best but not bad.

First, If you're a fan of Takeshi Kitano films, this one is for you.

Second, the movie is not a masterpiece like Outrage from Kitano, but it's a pretty cool action film without a cheesy script. Good fighting choreographies and action scenes.

Last, it's mostly unpredictable and a blood bath.

So, definitely If you appreciate this kind of movies , go for it.

Truly an enjoyable film. Engrossing story. Good acting from the leads. Some of the supporting roles were weak. Production overall quality was good. Great effort on all levels. Definitely for those of us who like these types of stories. Worth your time.
