Kenji Tanigaki's lean Japanese actioner hit 93% critics and 88% audiences — Xie Miao and Joe Taslim anchor the midyear martial-arts surprise that puts Hollywood chase films to shame.
Kenji Tanigaki's lean Japanese actioner follows a retired enforcer pulled back into the underworld when a young courier he once protected is marked for death over a stolen ledger. Xie Miao and Joe Taslim sprint through neon districts, parking garages, and bathhouses in a single night of hand-to-hand combat staged with clarity and moral weight. Tanigaki treats each fight as accounting — debts paid in bruises — and keeps the 100-minute runtime free of CGI bloat. Variety and Collider both flagged the film as the midyear martial-arts surprise that puts Hollywood chase films to shame.

Brown's father figure across a charged American landscape, colliding with Janelle Monáe and Vivica A. Fox as scripture, rage, and dark comedy rewrite the rules of who gets to deliver justice.
