So, 'Tokyo Dragon Chef' is this quirky blend of action and comedy that really captures that underbelly of Tokyo's gang culture through the lens of food. You’ve got these retired Yakuza who, instead of going out with a bang, decide to make ramen, which is just such a wild premise. The pacing is interesting; it bounces between the chaos of their new life and the creeping threat of this new gang. The humor is pretty dry, with some nice nods to classic crime films, while the practical effects bring an almost tactile quality to the fight scenes. The performances have a certain charm, especially when they get into the absurdity of their situation. It’s not your typical yakuza flick, that’s for sure.
