Trivia
"City Hunter" creator Tsukasa Hôjô had been refusing several offers to adapt his work over the years, because most of the time these works were simple action stories. However, when he met Philippe Lacheau he was impressed with the prepared screenplay: "In Philippe's scenario, there was everything: drama, laughter, things a bit naughty. He had taken into account the totality of the work."

Crazy credits
The last image of the film turns into a comic-book image from the "City Hunter" manga comic that inspired this film.

A perfect adaptation

They nailed it ! The actors, the atmosphere... You really feels like reaing one of the story from the manga, well-played, fun music, the characters being true to their manga version, both his looks and character... It was just perfect. Looking forward to buying the DVD !
