Shussho iwai

The Shussho Iwai took place in late twenties when the elder Imperator was replace for his young son, in that time Japan was a most a powerful nation of Eastern, also prearranged its expansion at Manchuria in China, then the government braced himself to sending to there woods and rails to construct a large railroad at Manchuria soon as possible.

The main glimpse was the two opposite Yakusa nemesis were share the operation without any disagreement to avoid of both sides lost money in the such profitable endeavor, sadly someone explodes the Railroad and dozens of Yakusa's members were sent to prison, in four years the new Imperator gave the pardon for those inmates, release them in order to fulfill the remainder of the sentence in parole.

Since then both Yakusa's gangs make a hard agreement to work together each one upheld its own territory and no more hard feelings concerning the past, for now on the Yakusa code will be respect to the extreme, nonetheless wounds not yet healed, even part four years old, the Yakusa's summit already aware about it and decide dismiss some troublemakers like as Gunjiro Oseki ( Noburo Ando) that was deadly enemy of Seji Iwahashi (Tatsuya Nakadai) that is the next to gave the blue card, among treachery, greedy, hidden interests the association of both Yakusa's clans is crumbles.

Hideo Gosha imposes a narrative of the storyline through in 3th person, it somewhat gave to the movie a documentary look, also has many sub-plots that enhances the picture itself, a bit slow pace in many sequences, letting the picture dispersive, although the chase through the city at festival and last showdown at seashore overcame all possible weakness!!

Thanks for reading.
