Crows ZERO
Crows Zero "Birds of a feather fight each other"
Crows Zero, the third picture by prolific Japanese maverick Takashi Miike, hit the fest circuit in as many months, following "Like a Dragon" and "Sukiyaki Western Django". Based on Takahashi Hiroshi's bestselling manga Crows, Crows Zero takes Miike to familiar territory - high school gang violence - and he cuts through the subject matter at high-octane speed for a stylized, action-packed, and entertaining schoolyard brawl of a movie.
