Wasabi
Luc Besson regular Jean Reno heads to Japan to reunite with his French-Japanese daughter as he investigates the death of her mother (an old girlfriend). It all ends up rather silly, as bullets and bad guys fly across the screen, and even Reno's natural charm gets shoved under Gérard Krawczyk's attempt to craft a clever cross-cultural action thriller (Beverly Hills Cop goes to Tokyo). Doesn't quite make it.
