MAN OF CINEMA
Many years before Takeshi Kitano Directed and starred in a film called Hana-bi,
which has acclaimed cult status, and depicted a serious drama of a yakuza's life.
Now after all these years he directed and acted in the film which really parody his own style, characters and narrative he created. Takeshi being a comedian himself in real life, provides a great slapstick comedy of errors in the second half by retelling the same story which narrated in drama manner in the first half.
It's quite a unique experimental approach, where you tell the same story in two different ways and mocking your own work which you loved.
Even with a small runtime the film provides enough to enjoy Takeshi'e trademark moments. And i feel people will enjoy the second half of humour a lot. Because it comes in a very unexpected way.
