About We're No Angels
Rikiya Yasuoka, Ren Ōsugi and Junji Inagawa star in this early straight to video effort from Takashi Miike. Joe (Yasuoka), a lumbering tough guy with a heart of gold, is fresh out of prison, but it's not long before he lands himself in trouble again. The courier company he works for is attacked by a local yakuza gang. Joe takes matters into his own hands.
Directed by Takashi Miike, We're No Angels leans on a strong ensemble — Rikiya Yasuoka, Junji Inagawa, Makiko Kuno — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1993.
