Use "The Outsider" to search, and you will find a lot of Camus' novels, as well as previous 2016 and even 1977 movies.
In fact, I watched this movie starring Jared Leto yesterday. The original Japanese name in the movie seems to be a foreigner. I am not sure, and I am too lazy to go back and check.
The movie is very ordinary. I saw the trailer on Weibo last year, and it seemed to be very good. After watching the whole film, I realized that all the wonderful things are compressed in the trailer, such as the tense underworld shootout, the beautiful Japanese woman , kimono, tattoo. Spread over the entire film is lackluster.
The film begins in a Japanese prison, but why this Yankee is imprisoned in Japan, there is no explanation. Why would the male protagonist join the gang? Where did the love with Miyu come from? The performances of geisha and sumo have nothing to do with the plot, and they are probably just released to add some Japanese elements. Not necessary at the dew point. The racism didn't go deep. It's shallow in every way.
In short, there are better Japanese gangster films than this one, and there are better action movies that celebrate loyalty and love, but they don't have enough weight. The shocking finger-cutting scene is about paying tribute to Mr. Kitano Takeshi. There is no freshness.
After watching the whole movie, what impressed me the most was the appearance of the protagonist Leto, with a smooth back, walking like clouds and flowing water, and handsome formal clothes. Put two favorite pictures, this is the reason why I gave this film "OK".
