I would describe this movie as a film noir with an 80's aesthetic, which is a pretty cool mix. The story kind of reminded me of Training Day at times - young detective who wants to do everything by the book meets jaded old cop who shows him that the lines between good and evil are much more blurred than they teach you at school. There is lots of gore and also some very humorous scenes, but the overall plot could have been a bit more creative. It's basically just a typical yakuza story about two rival gangs with cops in the middle trying to prevent a war, nothing really new.
