Takes the standard gangster movie template and blasts it out of the water.

The maverick Japanese writer-director-actor known for his vicious set-pieces and macabre sense of humor eventually delivers some lip-smacking pleasures in the slow-ignition yakuza thriller Outrage Beyond.

Beyond Outrage reaches above and beyond most Hollywood underworld movies to deliver a tale of righteous revenge doled out only after showing us how much it is deserved.

Beyond Outrage fails to live up to its title as Japanese superstar Takeshi Kitano can’t find much in the way of fresh ideas for the genre.

The strategy and strategizing of Beyond Outrage still feel like overkill (if you’ll pardon the expression).

Kitano’s surreal autobiographical phase was maddening, but it’s depressing to see him stoop to giving audiences what he thinks they really want.

The film lacks any kind of human interest, relying instead on our inferred love of lengthy strategy sessions and displays of ruffled pride. When it comes to yakuza cinema, you can do better.

While not as violent and brutal as it's predecessor, Beyond Outrage is an overall much better movie. The acting was good, the cinematography was great and the story and characters were much better. If you liked the first "Outrage", you will undoubtedly enjoy this sequel.
