Black Rain is your typical Hollywood movie...shallow. This movie contains so many stereotypes about Japan and the Japanese people it is almost insulting. The audience is led to believe that an American cop with a chip on his shoulder is able to infiltrate the Yakuza, Police system etc.in less than 24 hours. Haven't we seen enough 'America saves the world' type movies? Perhaps the only good thing about this movie is that for a change they actually have Japanese actors playing Japanese people and not an Asian looking face. Save your time and watch Sidney Polack's 'The Yakuza' which at least digs deeper into the Japanese mindset.
