The resurrection of Golden Wolf..."Scarface" in JPN...





For the fans of Scarface & The Wall Street...Arriviste finally could not


obtain the love from ultimately primary lady...



Very smart and violent movie starring Yusaku Matsuda(Asakura) as aspirant


to dominate the Leviathan...from bank robbery(quoted 3 hundred million


robbery in Showa Era...already on prescription and never arrested...),


bludgeoning gangsters and fixers of drug related...


to finally seizing the paramount of gigantic cooperation..


by his cunning brain, rough and truculent violence and high-motivation


for power....



Is this so brutal for people? No, some scenes are truly so. However,


it's just a game....jousting for money, power and respect or awe....


In the office, he pretended to be innocuous, idyllic and friendly...


but his inside is as I mentioned before...of course, he never revealed


and spilled his true figure...as aggressive aspirant, ruthless bank robber.
.

and smart guy...



Comparing the former (fictional) drug load Tony Montana in Scarface,


Asakura seems not to rely on his lucks, flukes and vainglory....


Montana finally broke up his property, relationships and even his life


because of his arrogant and suspicious attitudes for his fellows and


partners...thus, Tony is just a guy who has dreams but could not


control the powers and money and finally be destroyed by them....


Asakura never show those kind of flops...thus, he is so


canny and nimble for managing....


Sometimes he exploited his girlfriend as informer of executive


who had intimate relationship with her and


was in cooperation that Asakura works...Asakura also told some drugs for him


by her as go-between to make him addicted and gain the whole money


from him....Oh, that's so...pitiless!!



Anyway, it's not murky, morbid and depressive but just ruthless, survival


and truculent for whole powers...Asakura is just tough and wise guy for


games...against authority. After all, he finally....became the president of


his company....despite his position far from executive seats...by his


whole ability....however, it ended the tragedy for him and...his girlfriend...


by (phony)marriage with daughter of president for political tactics...


The finale of this is so draggy and catastrophic....not lachrymose but


pathetic for him...who finally seize the money but never realized his


love for...




In memory of Yusaku Matsuda...your sons are so active and eminent


for their acting works and one of them is on the advertisement with


"Robert De Niro"...
