Plot Synopsis:
Renegade cop, Kenner, pairs with equally renegade cop, Johnny Murata, to kick some serious yakuza ass in Los Angeles' Little Tokyo district.
Favorite Moments:
- Dolph Lundgren, beating up five yakuza baddies while drinking his morning tea, pinkie properly extended.
- Brandon Lee, as the Asian Task Force cop ignorant of his Japanese heritage. Hmm, isn't Brandon half-Chinese?
- Tia Carrere, with my favorite get-Dolph-Lundgren-into-bed line: "Do you hog the sheets?" "Brought my own!"
- Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, covered with nifty yakuza tatoos. Check out the scene where he haughtily rejects the sacrificial pinkie...
