<\/a><\/p>\nJust when you thought that Sion Sono\u2019s work can\u2019t get any crazier and more imaginative after 2013\u2019s Why Don\u2019t You Play in Hell?, here comes Tokyo Tribe \u2013 a berserk rap musical action drama about warring gangs in the near-future Tokyo, almost entirely told in rhyme, populated by a gallery of off-beat, super-fueled, and extreme characters, all competing for the control of the dystopian megalopolis, eventually having to unite to fight a bigger evil. Based on the popular manga series \u201cTokyo Tribe 2\u2033 by Santa Inoue, the film\u2019s large cast includes Shota Sometani as the film\u2019s MC, Riki Takeuchi (Takashi Miike\u2019s Dead or Alive) as the sleazy Lord Bubba, Ryohei Suzuki (Hentai Kamen: Forbidden Superhero) as a blond-haired testosterone-charged gang leader, Nana Seino (Danger Dolls) as the main heroine, and rapper-actor Dais Young. So let Master Sono transport you to a world full of killer rhymes, B-boy battles, high-kicking girls, pervy silliness, wild action (choreographed by Tak Sakaguchi, working under a pseudonym), and filled with so many baroque visual flourishes that the entire movie feels like Versailles stabbing you in both eyes, as you keep asking for more.<\/p>\n
