646f9e108c Tough karate master Terry Tsurugi takes it upon himself to protect a late businessman&#39;s daughter from the Yakuza. Terry is a tough, mercenary, master of martial arts. When an important business magnate dies, leaving billions to his daughter, the Mafia and Yakuza try to hire Terry to kidnap the daughter. When they refuse to meet his exorbitant price, then try to kill him to conceal their secret plans, he promptly offers his services to protect her. Much ultra-violent martial-arts fighting action,expected, ensues. This also includes a subplot of a family&#39;s bloodfeud with Terry over a disputed debt. Synopsis: Terry Tsurugi (the great Sonny Chiba) is a martial arts master who uses his abundant talentsa mercenary gun-for-hire. Terry is brought in by the Yakuza to kidnap the daughter and sole heir of a recently deceased uber-rich oil tycoon. But when the mafia can&#39;t meet the monetary composition that Terry asks for they attempt to keep their plot secret by offing Terry. What a momentous mistake on their part.<br/><br/>Thoughts: Sonny Chiba&#39;s &quot;The Street Fighter&quot; is considered a classic in the martial arts genre. I certainly won&#39;t disagree with that since the film is a solid action flick with serious energy. The English dubbing is awful (as always) but does lend itself to the entertainment. The action scenes are shot and staged masterfully and Chiba kicks the baddies from one side of the screen to the next. There are a few tired clichés (the smart-alec sidekick who becomes more of a hindrance than anything) but the overall end result is very entertaining. I just saw this for the first time and it rocked. The bloody action scenes were intense. One of my favorite parts is when Chiba punches a guy in the mouth and the man&#39;s teeth all fall out. Great martial arts movie! Chiba is just one bad mamajama.
