If you loved Over Drive, try The Sun Stands Still

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 Eiichiro Hasumi, and they both carry the foreign gem mood tag, and they sit in Action territory. If that's the register that drew you to Over Drive, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

foreign gem

What The Sun Stands Still is

Osaka, late autumn. A single, blood-soaked glove. Two corporate spies confront a looming double-cross involving next-gen energy tech, plus a North Korean operative and other shadowy players. Echoes of Fukasaku Kenji ripple through this twisty thriller.
