Three teenagers in Osaka, two boys and a girl, attempt to deal with life after recently finishing high school. They deal with break-ups, new love, beatings, happy times and sad in a more personal tale than Takashi Miike is usually known for. Esentually a slice-of-life coming of age movie with little Miike touches so you can tell it's one of his films. "Young Thugs: Innocent Blood" seems to get a bit of a short shift among certain Miike connoisseurs, but it's a pretty good film in it's own right.
My Grade: B-
