      Audience Member Just a Fantastic chop suey ride with some great comedy beats Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Oyama's story continues as his rise to fame as a karate expert naturally draws the ire of older schools who don't appreciate his new style. All this back biting and bitching naturally culminates in Chiba fighting a bear, or at least a guy in a bear suit. It's a lot of fun even during the occasionally corny due to the man in suit moments. Worth your rental. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Sonny Chiba fights a bear and is kind of a dick to everyone. What else is there to know?
