What they share

Both films are directed by Takashi Miike, and they both carry the pitch black, unhinged mood tags, and they sit in Action / Comedy / Crime territory. If that's the register that drew you to First Love, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Mole Song: Undercover Agent Reiji is

Reiji Kikukawa, the academy's least-impressive graduate, gets fired on purpose to infiltrate the Yakuza. His police chief invents disciplinary reasons to sell the ruse. The plan’s success hinges on Reiji not getting killed before it even starts.
