80s nostalgia but still one sided movie

80s action movies were mostly less talk and more action and even if it's weird what is happening and if doesn't makes sense is very entertaining and this movie is no exception. Unless you are a cat lover.

Mari is a beautiful girl that buys a cat, but the cat runs away and hit Ichijoji, a crazy thug that always gets into trouble, Mari finds him interesting, but after he couldn't pay for dinner they get hunted by chefs and then they get hunted by the police and then hunted by the mafia because Ichijoji stole the golden gun from their leader.

For all action lovers should love this film, but for the cat lovers might not love this for one scene which I'm not gonna spoil, just take my advice, but all action lovers should watch this.
