And now the "ultimate spokesman for housewives (and househusbands) everywhere,"the Yakuza Househusband, returns!
Directed by Toichiro Ruto, The Way of the Househusband: The Cinema leans on a strong ensemble — Hiroshi Tamaki, Haruna Kawaguchi, Jun Shison — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
