American Yakuza Limited Edition Blu-ray unleashes a hard-hitting transcontinental crime thriller born from Toei Pictures’ expansion of its iconic V-Cinema line into North America. Viggo Mortensen delivers an early lead performance as an ex-con who infiltrates a powerful Japanese crime family after saving the life of a Yakuza lieutenant, only to find his loyalties stretched to the breaking point when his true identity as an undercover FBI agent threatens to surface. Blending American gangster grit with Japanese crime cinema intensity, director Frank Cappello crafts a tense tale of honour, betrayal, and violence that has long remained underseen.
