" Date: 8/15/2020 Viewed: Blu-Ray Re-Watch Note: It's been a while since I have seen this movie and it is still awesome in my opinion. Tokyo Drifter is filled with non-stop action and beautiful cinematography. This movie is wonderful to look at because you have many amazing looking set pieces. You can take almost any scene of this movie and hang it up in a museum. The colorful imagery in this movie also has a dream quality feeling to it in my opinion. Tokyo Drifter has a simple, but yet very we"

"Yakuza's fight scene between The Bride and the Crazy 88s similar to Tetsu fighting yakuzas; mad go-go music; monochrome and fight on color background in both films."

"11.8. Arvostan sitä, miten elokuvasta on poistettu aivan kaikki kohtausten jämämateriaali, ja mukaan on otettu vain ne kaikkein oleellisimmat pätkät kohtauksista. Normaalisti ryöstöelokuvassa ryöstö alkaisi vaikka sillä, että rikolliset kaartavat autolla rakennuksen eteen ja kävelevät siitä taloon, mutta Tokion rakkikoirassa kohtaus alkaa siitä, kun rikolliset kävelevät saaliin kanssa pois. Tällaiset ratkaisut tekevät elokuvasta todella hyperaktiivisen ja kompaktin, mikä tun"
