John Gregoire (JohnPaulG07) Tokyo Rampage aka Pornostar is an intensely suspenseful horror film revolving around murder and betrayal within modern day Yakuza. The film starts off with a brief interaction between two unsuspecting characters leading to the backdrop the entire film is developed around. As the film progresses the characters slowly become more nihilistic and violent. Murder becomes more and more unsuspecting and brutal leading to a climax of gargantuan bloodshed. The dramatic elements are well developed centering around a theme of violent nihilism with dark and perverse antiheroes. It is surely a classic of extreme Asian cinema and while being as brutal as it is complete, the most disturbing elements of the film are its intense and frank comparison to modern day youth. It ends with a triumphant bang which can only be described as everything the film promises to be. There are no stones left unturned in this classic murderous film which I feel can only be described as the Asian version of Scarface. Bloody and violent, twisted, and perverse, it is obvious that if you are as fanatical about Asian Cinema as I am you will have zero difficulty adding this to your must watch list.

Digiboy 0101 Still don't get why it's title "pornostar". The talking female characters seemed all wishing for a "love" trip to Fiji. Does the director tries to hint us they are drug addicts somehow? That girl in bed seemed not able to understand the guy was on the phone and the other girl seemed quite sincere when talking about selling the acid but ended up using it herself...(i disagree she was a prostitute like suggested in an earlier post by someone) The stabbing scene in the garage was indeed very brutal. Interesting to note that he pulled out the yellow envelop in 1 piece :) The message from the filmmaker was very clear and i enjoyed it.

Emanuel Berglund This film is very slow, it's about a disillusioned youth that prowls around killing Yakuza. There isn't really a plot, just critisism of the society that Japanese youth grows up in. There is strong symbolism in the film, but I found it quite hard to understand all the time.I think there are films who deal with this subject better, never the less the film is worth seeing.

chrisdeutsch The story is about this weird guy (I think his name is Arano) arriving in Shibuya, Tokyo, who dislikes useless elements, thus eliminating them. He never quite defines the term useless (in fact he hardly talks at all), but yakuza (Japanese Mafia) seem to fit in there pretty clearly.Funny though how the yakuza admire him for his courage rather than hate him for his gangster-killing.The film starts out rather well. The first scene in which the main character is introduced is great (watch it on a big screen and turn up the volume). The character is truly unique, not completely cool (he acts rather clumsy falling down again and again trying to learn how to skate), but definitely cold. The actor fits just perfectly, at least as far as the facial expression is concerned. But somehow the film slows down towards the end, not that it got boring, the first half was just somewhat better. Still, it's a good movie. I have yet to find out what the title has to do with the story.
