I really like mystery and suspense movies. Here I will recommend a few Japanese mystery movies that I like very well

"Shoplifters" (2018)

In the middle of Tokyo's urban jungle, an old and shabby old house remains. Shibata's family of five lives here crampedly. Aji (played by Lily Franky), a man who works as a temporary worker at a construction site, often takes his son Shota (played by Shiro Hinoki) to the supermarket to steal daily necessities. On this day, on their way home, they met a four-year-old girl named Yu who was alone outdoors. Li (played by Miyuki Sasaki). His wife Shindai (played by Sakura Ando) initially strongly advocated sending the girl back to her parents, but she felt compassion when she saw the situation of the girl's native family. Originally, the Shibata family relied on the pension of the old lady Hatsue (played by Shirin Kuki). Now that there is an extra person, it is naturally a little more difficult. Including Shindai's younger sister Aki (played by Matsuoka Mayu), although the family wanders on the edge of poverty and illegality, their deep bonds bind them closely, preventing their hearts from becoming cold. The city becomes cold...?

This film won the Palme d'Or at the 71st Cannes Film Festival

"The Most Evil 3" (2017)

After directing "Ryuzo and His Party of Seven" last year, Kitano Takeshi has been enjoying his career as an actor this year. However, recently, Japanese media reported that the old man has quietly directed a new film - the third part of the gangster movie "The Unholy". This sequel is also the final chapter of the series. It is understood that "Extremely Evil 3" has been completed in mid-August.

The story of the "Wicked" series of movies focuses on the change of power among Tokyo yakuza gangs, the internal struggle for power and the cat-and-mouse game with the police. These are the themes of this series. In fact, as early as 2012 when the filming of "The Most Evil 2" was completed, Kitano Takeshi revealed that he would not rule out the possibility of filming "The Most Evil 3", and the Taipei character in the second story The extra blank space seems to have paved the way for the third part. Takeshi Kitano once said: "I like to see people shocked by my movies." It is reported that although the final title of the third part has not yet been determined, the story is still based on the first two parts.
