IMDb 5.5

Skip it. With a 5.5 IMDb score, this Japanese action-comedy can't overcome its muddled premise and uneven execution—even the locksmith gimmick can't pick the lock on this one. Unless you're specifically hunting for obscure cult gems, your time is better spent elsewhere.

Plot

Saru is a talented young locksmith who unlocks any kind of lock. He is, however, a complete fool when it comes to women. One day a girl Mayumi asks him to open a safe full of stolen money. Knowing nothing about it, Saru takes the money briefcase with Mayumi and finds himself with yakuza gangsters and also police in hot pursuit.
