Youth of the Beast" is another highly entertaining

"Youth of the Beast" is another highly entertaining and fun Seijun Suzuki film filled with action, violence, humor and just plain style! This is just a flat out fun film to watch as there is always something going on and some really cool set pieces that are a load of film to watch unfold. Jo Shishido and his cheeks star as an ex-cop who is out for revenge against the yakuza who in the past killed his partner. While the story itself is nothing new or inventive, it's the style and mood of the film that really sets it apart and makes it worth watching and makes it so damn enjoyable to view! If you like Japanese films, especially any of Criterion's releases such as the Nikkatsu Noir Eclipse set, Branded to Kill or Tokyo Drifter this is another great release to check out!

Well, based on the high standards set by

Well, based on the high standards set by other japanese classics this mid-era yakuza flic by Suzuki seems to be a bit too unpolished, macho and constructed. It’s fun watching it anyways if you can forgive some illogicalities.

Jo Shishido and Seijun Suzuki are in top

Jo Shishido and Seijun Suzuki are in top form in this full tilt Japanese pulp noir classic. The scenes are beautifully framed and tracked, punctuated by mesmerising splashes of colour; while the dialogue translates across without the cheesiness of some of Suzuki's other films.
