Hepcat in the Funky Hat: The 2,000,000 Yen Arm (1961) Jazzy Japanese slapstick action - the hepcat in question is son of the head of a private detective agency, and thus becomes involved in the case of a missing championship high school baseball player (a huge thing in Japan) and a cute female sports reporter. Frenetic action, lots of camping and mugging, imaginative cinematography, and only 51 minutes long so it's not too hard to take. Young shirtless Sonny Chiba developed the ability to knock down six guys with one punch and not get hit by a hundred short range gunshots at a very early age. 6/10
