Kite (1998) ****

Along with ''Mezzo Forte'' (also directed by Yasuomi Umetsu), ''Kite'' (1998) is probably the best Japanese hentai animé action movie ever made. It's so good, in fact, that there are two versions of it, the R-rated version that eliminates all the explicit scenes, and the Unrated Director's Cut. But both versions feature some of the best action sequences ever seen in a Japanese animation film.
