Description
A hilarious spoof on Yakuza films involving the Hollywood celebrity lookalike industry. The title refers to James Brown's singing "Get Up!" throughout his song "Sex Machine," as followed along by his Japanese fans who shout "Geroppa!" Award-winning actor Toshiyuki Nishida ("Taiyo o Nusunda Otoko / The Man Who Stole the Sun") stars as the James Brown-loving boss of a minor-league Yakuza family who wants to go straight. He's about to be incarcerated in a couple of days, and his henchmen (including Taro Yamamoto from "Battle Royale") try to kidnap James Brown who happens to be touring Japan, in order to make their boss's dream come true which is to meet the god father of soul. Takako Tokiwa co-stars as Nishida's estranged daughter.
