In this sidesplitting and scathing satire, a high-class Japanese hotel hires Mahiru Inoue, a lawyer with a knack for taking down the Yakuza, to help them evict their extortionist friends so they can land a lucrative contract with foreign officials. The hotel's owner turns to an unlikely duo - a timid accountant and a former sumo wrestler-turned-bellboy - to take on the gangsters, but it's Inoue who saves the day with her sharp wit and know-how. The film masterfully lampoons Japan's reluctant confrontation with crime, showcasing the Yakuza as more bumbling bullies than fearsome foes.
