In COPS VS THUGS (KENKEI TAI SOSHIKI BORYOKU), CROSS THE RUBICON! (SHIKINGEN GÔDATSU), and HOKURIKU PROXY WAR (HOKURIKU DAIRI SENSÔ), director Kinji Fukasaku tears away the illusion of honour to expose a Japan where the cops are as dirty as the gangsters and the only loyalty left is to survival itself.
