Blood for Money! Sonny Chiba is &quot;Golgo 13&quot;, a cold, calculating, ruthless assassin, working for the U.S. drug syndicate. His assignment: &quot;take-out&quot; Hong Kong&#39;s underworld kingpin. His only obstacle: a relentless cop, determined to stop him - no matter what the cost. The result is an explosive adventure through the seamy, violent streets of Hong Kong.
Pretty typical Japan crime film of the middle 1970s - fast, cynical, unbelievable, flashy, empty. There are a couple of twists that raise it above the level of mere curiosity. first, Chiba&#39;s performance is fine. Second, the film is Japanese, but filmed in Hong Kong, on of the first efforts to cross the great divide between China and Japan that had been rendered and filled with blood during WWII. Interestingly, unlike similar Chinese efforts - e.g., A Man Called Tiger, The Angry Guest/Kung Fu Killers - there&#39;s no effort to explore differences between the two cultures: Hong Kong is just another thriving Asian metropolis, much like Tokyo. Perhaps this lack of notice of any difference is the crucial difference - come to think of it, Japanese action films of the 1970s don&#39;t have much to say about China in general, or Hong Kong - except to hint that the crime rate is unacceptably high there - which seems a bit churlish since all the professional killers in these films are Japanese. Oh, well.<br/><br/>One last historical note - this film clearly had as much impact on John Woo&#39;s &quot;The Killer&quot; as Melville&#39;s &quot;Le Samourai&quot; - more, I think, since the cop/killer relationship, given crude but important presentation here, is closer to the center of the Woo film than the implicit romance borrowed from the Melville film.<br/><br/>Nothing special, but worth a look.
I haven&#39;t seen any of the original anime films of Golgo 13 but I am planning on it in the near future. I had heard how gory they are so I thought this version might be pretty gory but unfortunately, it isn&#39;t. I had to watch the English dubbed version because the transfer with the subtitles was absolutely awful but it didn&#39;t take away from the experience as much as I thought it would. This is a fun movie for anyone who is into hit-man films.<br/><br/>Sonny Chiba does a great job as usual. I loved the grindhouse feel to this film. The action was great and so was the story, for the most part. There are some really great kung fu sequences as well. I think everyone should give this movie a shot. View it for what it is, a fun little 70&#39;s action film. Just don&#39;t expect some sort of masterpiece and you&#39;ll be just fine.
