If you loved Boiling Point, try Kids Return
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Takeshi Kitano, and they both carry the slow burn mood tag, and they sit in Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Boiling Point, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Kids Return is
You loaf in Matsumoto, pulling schoolyard shakedowns. But expulsion arrives, and life forks: boxing gym or gangland. Shinji jabs; Masaru menaces. Soon enough, though, their choices land differently. Kitano's camera finds a quiet beauty in the banality of their downbeat destinies. It lingers.
