It´s not the oh so spicy ingredient you add to soy sauce use for sushi. It´s a movie (shown last 2001) written and produced by Luc Besson (yes, I do like most of his works. especially the taxi series) and stars Jean Reno (Ronin, Godzilla). It follows the story of Hubert (Reno), a tough verteran french cop, wherein he was suspended for his unorthodox style of catching criminals. Suddenly, he gets a phone call from a lawyer from Tokyo telling him that the woman he loved and left him 19 years ago is being cremated and he is the sole beneficiary on the will. As he arrives at Tokyo, not only does he discover letters and pictures from his past but that he also has a cop-hating daughter (Ryoko). As the two come together mishaps and outrageously funny misadventures start as the Mafia is somewhat involved. This is an off-beat action comedy one would enjoy, if you don´t mind reading subtitles.
