The Other Side of Revenge
11 February 2023
This film essentially begins with a hitman by the name of "Sho" (Yuichi Minato) meeting a businessman named "Naka" (Masayoshi Nogami) as a discreet location in the countryside to discuss a matter of grave importance. In that regard, Naka tells Sho that a female employee named "Sae" (Noriko Tatsumi) has been kidnapped and is being used as an unwilling participant in films of a sexual nature. Sho agrees to find Sae and immediately begins looking for a man named "Ko" (Shohei Yamamoto) who he believes did something similar with his wife who was subsequently killed. What Sho doesn't count on, however, is that while searching in the sordid underworld for Sae's abductors, things are not necessarily as simple as he would like them to be. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that this was a rather confusing film which had too many subplots and other types of issues which only served to lessen the movie overall. No doubt some will consider it artistic, but I didn't much care for it, and I have rated it accordingly. Below average.
