Black Rain

CriticsCritics: 55
AudienceAudience: 6.4

Two New York cops escort a captured Japanese gangster back to Japan, where he escapes into the underworld. As they pursue him through Osaka, they must work with local authorities and adapt to unfamiliar rules, customs, and criminal networks.

My take

You’ll enjoy this if you like stylish, hard-edged cop thrillers, culture-clash stories, and films such as The Yakuza; Not for you if dated clichés, abrasive heroes, or straightforward plots are dealbreakers.
