90s Japanese Crime Movies Week Wrap-up

Sundance Midnight movies 2021

Hello dear visitors!

That was it for our theme week number 4.

With these Japanese crime movies we've watched, I learned that I'm not a big fan of the movies directed by Beat Takeshi, they're a little too slow for me. I'm excited about watching more movies by SABU and I've already written his name on our lottery papers. Next week's theme has already been decided and we will let you know what it is tomorrow.

Below you can find the list of movies we watched ordered by best to worst.

Have a great week!
