Just saw it. Overall, it's a shame Hollywood can't even release films this good. Definitely a noir film. Very stylistic and beautiful just to watch. The Goodfellas of the Japanese Yakuza told in manner where the ending isn't ground breaking but very satisfying. Better than 90% of films released in theaters. I hope Netflix bankrupts Hollywood, because at least they care about good film making.

Did anyone else wish that this had been a series rather than a standalone movie? The opening credits really felt like a TV series title sequence, and the story/tone of the movie seemed like it would really lend itself well to a dramatic series. I wonder if maybe at some point this was intended to be a series?

This was a good one. Post WWII 1950's Japan is a time period that I've never seen portrayed in a film before. There was lots of eye candy—cool cars, clothes, seedy old fashioned Japanese locales. The actors were good too; instead of using a bunch of "hunky" models, they got mostly everyday people to play the parts. Although the story was plain Jane, the characters and awesome setting made for a very entertaining movie.
My main gripe was this trailer, and how it spoiled one of the plot points.
