    It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

    I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

    This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

    Mad Bull 34 may not be the best anime in terms of storyline, but it is sure as hell entertaining.It is an OVA consisting of 4 1 hour long episodes.It was released by Manga Entertainment on VHS back in the 90's.The episodes are available on youtube(as of now), however it desperately needs a DVD release.The profanity,sex,over the top violence and hilarious one liners make this an extremely entertaining anime.The premise of the show is of two cops.One is a young rookie who wants to play by the rules, and the other is a fat, sex addicted, trigger happy police veteran.They both solve crimes such as rape and murder while trying to deal with each other.Mad Bull 34 is a great anime about the NYPD and it needs to be re-released uncut along with Violence Jack and other entertaining but not exactly thought-provoking animes.

    Mad Bull 34 is a 4 part anime series that features the story of an 18 year-old police academy grad named Daizaburo Eddie Ban. He joins the NYPD's 34th precinct and meets his new partner John Estes, AKA: Mad Bull. Mad Bull's over-the-top way of dispensing criminals, and dealing with prostitutes has yet to be seen. This guy gives new meaning to police brutality. Shoot first, ask questions later. This concerns Daizaburo, but learns the meanings behind Mad Bull's Actions. Visually, it's pretty average. I've never seen the Japanese sub version, but the English dub isn't that bad at all. In fact, it's pretty funny. Overall, it's a good action-comedy series that shouldn't be taken seriously. Watch it at midnight on the weekend and you won't be sorry. Highly recommended but contains sex(not really graphic), graphic violence, and language that would make a sailor's ears bleed.

    Mad Bull is a wonderful example of the Japanese's warped view of American culture. It takes place in an alternate universe New York City where the palpable scent of death, decay, and violence permeates the air. A fresh, half Japanese recruit is teamed with a seasoned veteran nick-named Mad Bull for his tendency to shoot people's heads off a segment at a time. The recruit is serious and by the book, and Mad Bull would rather spend his time sleeping with prostitutes.Naturally, in the beginning there is some tension between the two partners, stemming almost entirely from the recruit's contempt of Mad Bull's habit of sleeping with prostitutes and then stealing their money. He even has a cadre of whores that he pimps to his partner so he can lose his virginity. And this is the protagonist! He's the guy we're supposed to relate to! Amazing!Eventually the mismatched duo need to work together in order to fight the character I have christened the "Super Negro"--a bad ass pimp (of course) who wants to do some bad stuff. I wish I could remember what that stuff is, but it's really secondary to Mad Bull's random outbursts of violent fury.You should definitely view this if you are a fan of misogyny, violence, racial stereotypes, and heroes with absolutely no moral compunction. I loved it.

    God only knows how the japanese view the NYPD but I'm sure they're nothing like this (well mostly anyway). Corrupt cops who delight in dispensing vigilante justice a la Charles Bronson seem to make up the majority of the force here and Mad Bull is the best of a bad bunch although he has a heart and only deals out his particular brand of justice to those scumbags that deserve it you can't help but feel that shooting first and........well, not even bothering to ask any questions later is a bit over the top but hey OTT is what Mad Bull's all about and it's bloody well enjoyable.Full of top notch graphic violence action and comic moments, this is like the anime version of Lethal Weapon only more so.Definately one of the better manga's around, give it a shot, at the very worst you'll at least be entertained.
