Plot: Mr. Long is a Taiwanese hitman who is sent to Japan to kill a Yakuza member. His attempt fails, but he survives the confrontation and finds himself in a poor, rundown neighborhood where he has to survive until the next boat to Taiwan arrives. Some friendly neighbors help him out, and while waiting to flee Japan, Mr. Long starts to build up a life he's not so keen to leave behind anymore. Even so, life in Japan isn't all roses, and before long, his past life catches up with him.

Another quality Tanaka film. More in line with Bunny Drop, combining drama and comedy to great effect. Mr. Long also introduces some crime elements, though they are very limited. Well shot, perfectly acted, dramatically impeccable. It's not as unique as some of his other films, but well worth a watch.
