| In this epic of Yakuza honour, betrayal and bloodshed, maverick director Miike
Takashi creates a tale that is at once cool and muted yet unremittingly dark and
brutal. Featuring all of the outrageous trademarks that audiences have come to
expect from this twisted cinematic mind, Agitator adds a degree of
intensity to the mix that needs to be seen to be believed. When a young Yakuza
torments the customers in a rival crime family's nightclub, it is not long
before his dead body is found.
Soon, inter-family retaliation follows, resulting in the death of a prominent
crime boss. Devastated by this turn of events, the temperamental Kenzaki vows to
avenge his boss's death and, as bloody violence ensues, the body count reaches
excessive proportions. Ranging from the darkly comedic to the violently stylish,
this is a twisted trip through the tattoo-strewn, bullet-ridden world of the
Japanese Yakuza that will leave you stunned and surprised.
