The Yakuza Papers 3: Proxy War (1973)

BWH&H 3: Worth Waiting For

This is considered by many to be the best entry in the whole series. It certainly has more going on than the others, and the new characters really add a lot to the story progression. The only disappointing aspect is that this one and the fourth movie serve a sort of one-two punch, almost like they are one complete film that's been cut in two. That means there's a sort of empty feeling at the end of it where you stop and go , "That's it?". You have to watch the fourth to really have everything sorted out.

If you liked the first two movies but weren't completely sold, I would say you should still give this one a watch. It's the most intricate, the most intense, and the most interestingly plotted this series gets. It's also the first entry that didn't follow the true stories that the first two were based off of, so this is when the project became entirely that of the director's.

I enjoyed this one just as much on a second watch, and perhaps even moreso (it's easier to follow who is who once you've already seen it once).
