City Hunter (2024 Netflix) : “Ryo Saeba descends upon Reiwa! A masterpiece that exceeds expectations.”
The live-action film "City Hunter," now streaming on Netflix, really gets what made Tsukasa Hojo's original manga special and gives it a fresh update. Ryōhei Suzuki does a great job showing both Ryo Saeba's goofy, flirtatious side and his impressive skills as a professional sweeper. Mochizuki Kaoru, played by Mochizuki Mochizuki, adds a new kind of charm. The movie tells the origin story in today's Shinjuku, making for exciting action that both longtime fans and newcomers can enjoy. It raises the bar for live-action Japanese film adaptations. -
