Shinjuku Incident 2009 ★★★½

Reviewed Jun 24, 2012

Jackie Chan plays a Chinese immigrant in Japan, looking for his former squeeze. He gets involved in petty crime with his fellow Chinese, and slowly gets drawn into conflict with the other gangs. A change of pace for Jackie - who actually kills someone for the first time on screen - this is a serious, complex drama full of well drawn characters and really holds the attention, although there’s still enough action scenes for fight fans.
