Fake...
A while back, when VCRs still stalked the Earth, I picked up the VHS version of Fake...
Fake starts out fairly slow and drags on for a while. Then, near the end things pick up a bit, but, by then I had lost all interest in Fake. I gave Fake a 1 out of 5. I had the Fake on subtitled VHS. In the aftermath of the Ultimate Otaku Fall Cleanup, I decided not to keep it in my archive.
Meet Dee Latener and his half Japanese partner Randy (call me Ryo) McLane, a couple of detectives in New York's 27th Precinct. Not only does this pair of crime fighting crusaders chase down criminals, but Dee can't seem to stop chasing Ryo as well. Is it just his dark hair and eyes that attract him so, or is it something else...?
Tired of the daily city grind, our heroes set off for a vacation in England, to relax, enjoy themselves, and if Dee has his way...
But when Japanese Americans start turning up dead outside Dee and Ryo's hotel, the ever vigilant mismatched investigators become embroiled in the local crime scene. Although their hotel had seemed to be the perfect secluded little romance rendezvous, Ryo starts off chasing murder suspects while Dee can't stop chasing Ryo.
It may not be all tea and crumpets for a couple of tough guys from New York, but this adventure will give them a taste of Britain that they will not soon forget. Dee's plans for seducing Ryo may have gone awry, you can be sure he'll stay hot on the trail until he gets his man!
