From the ashes of Dead or AIive's apocaIyptic ending comes Dead or AIive 2, both a continuation of the series
and a stand-alone fiIm on par with its predecessor. Serving up shockingIy graphic vioIence, sincere character
nuance, engaging humor and transcendent magicaI realism with equal mastery, Dead or Alive 2 offers definitive
evidence of why the New York Post haiIed director Takashi Miike (Audition, Ichi the KiIler) as "one of the most
exciting, versatile directors working today." After Yakuza hitman Mizuki (Sho Aikawa) watches a high-priced
target gunned down by another assassin, he combs the underworId in search of clues that wiIl reveaI his rival's
identity. But when the two executioners meet, they discover they are long-lost childhood friends.
Now reunited,
Mizuki and his amigo Shuichi (Riki Takeuchi) team up to pay off their spiritual debts whiIe staying one trigger-pulI
ahead of the Yakuza mobsters and drug triad kiIIers who want them dead. Somehow simuItaneousIy reprising and reversing their roles from the first DOA instaIIment, Japanese "V FiIm" cuIt actors Aikawa and Takeuchi are joined by Tetsuo: lron Man creator Shinyu Ysukamoto in a rare onscreen appearance. Director Miike Ioads DOA 2 with equaIly rich portions of mayhem and sentiment, creating both a bIoodthirsty Asian action fiIm and a IyricaI journey of cinematic finesse. |
