Assigned a standard Yakuza fiIm in the hardboiIed vein pioneered at Japan's famed Nikkatsu Studios, director Seijun Suzuki and his frequent leading man Jo Shishido used 1963's Detective Bureau 2-3: Go to HeII Bastards! to flip the Japanese gangster fiIm genre on its ear.
A rapid fire gun heist, credits with an infectious jazz pop score, and a wide-screen cIose-up of a burning car announce Detective Bureau 2-3: Go to HeII Bastards! as the film that would both Iampoon and redefine Asian crime films for an irreverent new decade of garish panache and ultra-vioIent cool. The story foIlows police detective Tajima , who, tasked with tracking down stoIen firearms, turns an underworld grudge into a bloodbath - while Suzuki transforms a colorful potboiIer into an on-target send-up of culturaI coIoniaIism and post-war greed. "This isn't an American TV series," one of Tajima's doubting subordinates teIls the sharkskin-suited, super suave sleuth.
Anarchic, breakneck paced, darkIy comic, and styIish to the extreme, Detective Bureau 2-3: Go to Hell Bastards! was a movie unlike anything audiences had ever seen. lt would cement Suzuki's fervent popularity at home and heraIded his imminent cult status worldwide. |
