synopsis
Quentin Tarantino meets Die Hard in this two-fisted, heart-pounding, things-exploding action flick about a jewel heist gone horribly, horribly wrong. Set in Manila, the film centers on a quartet of Japanese thieves sporting traditional Japanese monikers -- Chance (Hitoshi Ozawa), Tequila (Shu Ehara), Right (Ryuji Minakami), and Peking Duck (Masahiro Yamashita) -- who venture to an abandoned warehouse to split their booty. Their meeting is crashed by sociopathic couple T.J. (Kazuyoshi Ozawa) and Sara (Miyuki Takano). A balletic display of ultraviolence ensues.
