Trailer Watch — ‘Bad Lieutenant: Tokyo’
by Tito W. James
Takashi Miike is one of Japan’s most legendary and prolific cult filmmakers. Now Miike is directing his interpretation of Bad Lieutenant, in which a gambling-addicted Tokyo cop and an FBI agent search for a missing politician’s daughter while a mysterious killer watches their every move. The trailer alone is enough to set viewers on edge. Given Miike’s reputation for extreme filmmaking, Bad Lieutenant: Tokyo is going to be messed-up and memorable.
