As they are serving a prison sentence a plan is hatched to get them released so they can lead their captors to the hidden gold on Hikone Beach. Danger and excitement await the two as they run into unexpected and dangerous obstacles!
This movie is kind of bonkers but in a good way. It is pure 60s. The first thing you notice is the strange soundtrack, it is a mashup of Miles Davis and James Bond it seems like I can’t quite put my finger on it, I don’t know if it was just lifted from something else? But it is pretty cool but it needs to be in a Yakuza movie or something it doesn’t fit with gedaigecki.
