Showdown in Little Tokyo 1991
The wardrobe department raided Steve Harvey's closet for the Yakuza guy's costumes. Some of the biggest suits you'll see in your entire life.

Outlaw Brothers keeps a great pace and has a good variety of action with car stunts, great fight scenes, and lots of nobel stuntmen dutifully wiping out for our entertainment. Best of all Yukari Ōshima is radiating some impeccable bi vibes with her killer outfits and appreciation of lady muscles. I'm not kidding there's a very homoerotic scene with her coworker at the gym that…
