If you loved Deadly Outlaw: Rekka, try The Negotiator

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Takashi Miike, and they sit in Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Deadly Outlaw: Rekka, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Negotiator is

Tokyo hospital ward. Winter light. A single cough. Three masked figures seize hostages after a botched store heist. Detectives Ishida and Tohno talk terms while another cop quietly investigates motives, the case rippling backward to reveal a hidden plot. Miike scales down without losing an ounce of malice.
