THE SHINJUKU INCIDENT

The love brought a tractor technician from China named Steelhead (Jackie Chan) departed for Japan. Steelhead meant looked for Xiu Xiu (Jinglei Xu), his sweetheart that suddenly disappeared without having the news. An arrival in Japan, Steelhead must bear the disappointed feeling because that he found not like that he hope for. When arriving there, Steelhead just realise that the dark immigrants from China available in the country the life is isolated from the Japanese community generally. They lived in the hiding because of being frightened was caught and returned back to China. Because of not having the alternative, Steelhead was forced to have to survive in Shinjuku by working to the blue-collar worker. Not old at intervals of, Steelhead succeeded in finding Xiu Xiu but unfortunately not like that he hope for. Xiu Xiu evidently has changed the names and will immediately marry Eguichi (Masaya Kato) that immediately will become the Yakuza leader in the area. This reality did not make the Steelhead intention subside. He afterwards tried to approach Eguichi And straightaway got the belief from this Japanese man. And because of Steelhead help also, Eguichi had finally succeeded in eliminating the weight rival and holding the authority as the leader Yakuza. As the feeling statement thank you, Eguichi bestowed the Shinjuku territory for Steelhead. Evidently increasingly old Steelhead with Eguichi, increasingly was difficult also for Steelhead to leave the world of the crime. Various ease that he could since him with Eguichi increasingly made him fall to the world of the Japanese crime. Apparently in the film was entitled SHINJUKU INCIDENT this Jackie Chan tried to run away from trademark the champion kung fu that since 1976. The proof is, although still had several scenes that involved Jackie in the struggle, but his impression he was a person petarung the street and not the champion kung fu. In fact this was just very legal but the image that has been strong that in fact could not be eliminated just like that only with a film, except if this film had the strength that could change the image that has adhered on the marrow fans. From the side Acting, Jackie Chan indeed not the newcomer in front of the camera. With track record for almost 40 years, explained he did not have the problem with the interpretation of the text in the form of the movement, the face and the intonation. Moreover with the idea related that really Asia like this, clear did not have the quite serious problem. Unfortunately, hard efforts of Jackie Chan this was not matched by the idea related that original. As a result, none made this film be recalled by the person and become the turning-point for Jackie Chan. Saw this film, appeared to not have his difference by seeing the Hong Kongese film in the 80 's that was dominated by the idea the story croaked the life of the world of the crime in Hong Kong. To just recalled the glory of the Hong Kongese film in Indonesia, this film might be made one of the choices, but not if you hoped for something that was spectacular from the noose of Jackie Chan.
