This is a film that centres on a Japanese man and his new in restaurant in London. Gangsters from Russia, English, & Yakuza are all drawn to him....
This has been done before & it is watchable. It is predictable but not offensive. The characters are very generic & I think Guy Ritchie already perfected this genre so any imitators are up against it.

Where is it
Kinji (Akie Kotabe) takes a device from the Yakuza and now must run and hide in London with his family. He operates a successful restaurant that the Russians want a piece of. The Yakuza locate Kinji and come after him along with the English thugs as we have three factions all behaving in an unreasonable fashion spewing out tough guy talk for the hell of it. Very poorly scripted and how the heck did he get that "device" through airport security? A desperate watch for a crime thriller.
Guide; F-word. No sex or nudity.
A welcome surprise!
Don't believe any of the negative reviews. I went into this flick expecting an average/so-so plot. Boy, was I WRONG! It's a great debut by director Fraser Precious who also shines in his role as a British gangster. It's not a perfect movie, but it's engaging and also has its funny moments, for me it's a solid 8.
