Adorenarin doraibu Or Adrenaline drive - Directed by Shinobu Yaguchi, this parody of popular Japanese teenage romances uses slapstick to tell the not-so-classic “robbers versus robbers” story. An explosion at a Yakuza nest (*) puts a timid nurse and a rental car clerk in possession of a briefcase of blood-soaked money. The rest is a wild ride as the nurse is transformed into a glamorous heroine and outsmarts the gangsters out to recover the loot. For 10 points--name this 1999 movie starring Masanobu Ando and Hikari Ishida.[1]
