The Resurrection of the Golden Wolf 4K 1979 Ultra HD 2160p

Story Movie

During work hours, Tetsuya Asakura is a humble company employee, but outside of work, he’s a full-fledged adventurer who’s an expert at fighting and handling weapons. Robbing a cash-in-transit driver of 100 million yen; swindling the yakuza; blackmailing board members to his advantage—he can handle it all. But with a lifestyle like that, having a condition like hemophilia is doubly dangerous.

Review 4K Movie

I don't know what that other guy's problem with Jun Fubuki is, she's over 50 now but still pretty cute. Unless you live in Japan, where she does a lot of TV, you probably don't know what she looks like now, anyway. Back when this film was made she was hot, as were all the other women in this film. Especially the black go-go chick! Anyway, this movie isn't about eyeballing the ladies, though that's no chore. It's about hating your life because you have some soulless job that your whole life is centered around, and it's about one guy who decides he will break out of that box -- no matter how rotten evil he has to be to make that happen! How Asakura got to be so good with weapons and street-wise with his wheeling and dealing isn't gone into much, we just know he's trained as a boxer. But that won't bother you because you'll just be wondering where he gets the nerve to be so bad! You might also wonder, as I did, whether he'll have a redeeming moment at the end...

Some may find the pace a little slow, but even when the story fails to develop in spots, Asakura keeps saying and doing nasty things. Favorite lines of dialog (early in the film, so not a spoiler): "Do you have a family?" "Yes! Yes! Please don't kill me!" "They'll be happier when you're dead." bang.
