Takeshi Kitano is an all-star of Japanese cinema, and violent cop is his directoral debut. Kitano stars in the movie and is fantastic playing the title character in a way that is both scary and intimidating but also sad and extremely pathetic. The way this movie is shot is really striking and if you can get through some slower moments I promise you, it will not disappoint in the slightest.
I find it dissapointing that Kitano himself, doesn't really like this movie, cause I think it's great.
