Highly Overrated But Still Good

A Brilliant Conflict

It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

Ironfinger (or 100 shots,100 killed) is a Toho's parody to the James Bond series, It stars Akira Takarada as Andrew Hishino who seems like a regular guy caught up in a secret agent scam but he is not who he seems, also starring is Mia Hama who would actually star in a James Bond movie herself (You Only Live Twice)Ichiro Arishima (Mr.Tako from King Kong vs Godzilla) and Akhito Hirata who plays one the villains. If you,like me, grew up watching Godzilla films you would be able to recognize most the cast and it is a treat to watch them perform in something different and they really seemed to have been having a blast making this. The film has a fun and enjoyable and silly atmosphere and while many moments are over the top they go with the film's nature. Unfortunately there is no US DVD release of the film, fortunately if you have a Hulu account you can find it there! along with it's Sequel (though not as fun as the first but still a good one!) Golden eye!
