This movie was terrible. I like Michael Douglas but his rogue cop who plays by his own rules down not work in this movie. He's sleazy enough as is, it's hard for me to like him as this type of cop. It's not sleazy in a bad way, it's sleazy in a way that works like gangbusters in movies like The Game or Wall Street. But here it just feels dirty.

Also annoying is the 1980's portrayal of Japanese culture and how badass and correct "the American way" is. I think we're supposed to watch him being an asshole to everyone and be like, "hell yeah, it's our way or the highway" but in 2016's eyes it's laughable. It's almost all forgivable with that hysterically dorky thumbs up Douglas gives at the end. Too funny.

(A completely unnecessary and nitpicky side note: This is the second film where I have been floored by how hairy Andy Garcia is. The first was The Untouchables. In this movie he undoes his tie and boom, it looks like they had to take a chainsaw to the rug on his chest so we could see his neck. It's crazy!)
