Black Lagoon – Season 1 & 2 (Blu ray + DVD) [Blu-ray]

Description

Product description Black Lagoon C(Br+Dv) The action-adventure
series Black Lagoon (2006) shoots off more ammunition than a Clint Eastwood
film festival. Rokura Okajima, a minor flunky in a major corporation, thinks
his life is over when he’s kidnapped by pirates, but it’s only his business
career that ends. He joins the pirates as “Rock,” and the trio of Dutch, the
understated leader; happy-go-lucky techie Benny; and trigger-happy, potty-
mouthed Revy becomes a quartet. They’re less pirates than soldiers of fortune,
ready to do anything if the price is right. They pursue adventures involving
treasure left on a sunken World War II U-boat, pornographers, drug- and arms-
dealing nuns, kidnappers, and a terrorist plot to blow up US embassies. The
second season of Black Lagoon ratchets up the action and the violence, as two
sadistic assassins throw the underworld into an uproar: a pair of Romanian
orphans who developed a taste for cruelty performing in snuff films. But most
of the Second Barrage focuses on Rock serving as a translator when Russian
crime boss Lady Balalaika intervenes in a yakuza gang war in Tokyo. Revy
serves as his bodyguard, leaving Benny and Dutch behind. Rock falls for Yukio,
a high school girl who succeeds her father as head of the Washimine crime
syndicate. When Lady Balalaika comments, “We’re all going to be knee-deep in
blood before this ends,” she isn’t kidding. The Russian gangsters, who command
more men, vehicles, and weapons than many national armies, quickly exterminate
most of the Washimine gang. Amid the carnage, Yukio complains bitterly (and
seriously), “Honor and justice are dead.” Although bullets, blood, and four-
letter words fly, it doesn’t add up to much. The gun battles, car chases,
knife fights, and explosions take up so much screen time, there’s little left
for character development or a coherent narrative. Extremely violent,
misogynistic, and profane, Black Lagoon is not for squeamish or easily
offended viewers. (Rated TV MA: graphic violence, violence against women,
extensive profanity, grotesque imagery, alcohol and tobacco use, racial slurs,
offensive ethnic stereotypes, Nazi imagery, offensive religious imagery,
references to child pornography, suggested incest and torture) –Charles
