WHAT'S THE STORY?

Genre: Action

In Los Angeles, Bronson and his partner are engaged in a war against a sleazy pimp who specializes in kidnapping young girls and supplying them to rich, perverted businessmen. We learn that Bronson's hatred of this man borders on the deranged, and we also learn (in an awkward and embarrassing scene) that he is prejudiced against Asians.
With an inevitability born of a thousand other plots, the Japanese businessman and his family are transferred to Los Angeles, where the businessman tries the same nasty trick on the bus - this time, of course, against Bronson's daughter (Amy Hathaway), who does raise an outcry. Bronson goes into a lather when he hears of this unspeakable deed and mobilizes almost the entire vice squad in a search for the perpetrator. Meanwhile, in an irony we have been anticipating for many scenes, the Japanese businessman's grade school-age daughter is kidnapped by the pimp.
Now we have everything in place: Bronson hates the pimp even more than he hates Asians, but just wait until he finds out that the victim's father is the man who put his hand on Bronson's daughter's knee. (You'll apparently have to wait until the sequel; amazingly, although the daughter eventually recognizes her accoster, there is no payoff for this laborious setup.)

By Riger Ebert from The Chicago Sun-Times

NICOLE'S SCENE: The movie opens with Bronson and his inept partner talking during a stakeout. Bronson listens wearily at his partners comments until a limo rolls up with "That sleazebag Duke" and a young girl who Bronson says looks the same age as his daughter. They decide to go in having no legitimate reason at all. When the front desk doesn't cooperate in illegal police activity, Bronson demands, "You try me you'll wish you were back in mother India. When they force their way in under the pretense of a scream, the man is not happy to see him. After being thrown through a dresser, and called a dirty bastard, Bronson demands a sworn statement that Duke brought the girls. When he refuses, Bronson shows him what it feels like to be one of those little girls by picking up a dildo and sodomizing him with it. The faint screams are heard as the girl and the inept partner walk out.

HOW DO I RATE IT?

For the prurient, KINJITE: FORBIDDEN SUBJECTS features rape, rough trade, and child prostitution to go with its hefty dose of violence. Charles Bronson plays Crowe, who spends his days slogging through slime as a vice-squad cop and his nights fretting about the morals of his teenage daughter. His nemesis is Duke (Juan Fernandez), a pimp who impresses children into the kinky sex trade. Since Crowe (naturally) is no by-the-book cop, he goes after Duke in unconventional, violent, and offensive ways. Before getting his comeuppance, Duke kidnaps and rapes a Japanese girl (Kumiko Hayakawa) whom he markets under Crowe's nose, and while searching for her the Asian-hating cop discovers that Japanese are OK after all. The film's philosophy is summed up by one character's remark that "Justice isn't good enough. You gotta exact a biblical vengeance." In the service of this dubious principle, Bronson does his usual violent-teddy-bear number believably, and the other actors do what they can with the formula script and hack direction. The film is sheer exploitation, its hodgepodge of "moral" issues meant to lend the titillating proceedings an air of righteousness.

From TV Guide

  The title of this Cannon release should've been COP WITH A REALLY BAD ATTITUDE. Supposedly the triumphant return of Chuck Bronson, some critics have even called this "his best since DEATH WISH." I wouldn't go that far, but KINJITE is worth seeing if you like Bronson and violence (which are usually synonymous...except in last year's MESSENGER OF DEATH).
Chas plays a Los Angeles vice cop who has a tendency to get carried away. For instance, right after the opening credits he anally rapes a would-be pederast with a foot-long dildo before taking the guy in for booking. I'm thinking he might lose his pension, but nobody at LA Police Central seems to care.
The idea of an out-of-control cop who meets out street justice to scum he can't arrest is certainly not a new one. However, when the cop is the grizzled, ever-so- macho Bronson this old format has the potential to be damned entertaining. The problem with KINJITE (a Japanese word for "forbidden subjects") is that director J. Lee Thompson doesn't know how to direct an action film. Let me rephrase that, he doesn't know how to direct at all. A good director could've made this a kickass film, but some of Thompson's action sequences could be mistaken for scenes from a Bergman film.
However, when has poor directing ever made a difference in Hollywood? The sub-plot about a Japanese businessman and his family is somewhat humorous and the dildo scene only warms the audience up for more out-of-line things later on. The one thing I can say about KINJITE is it does have balls.
Overall, it is the best Bronson movie since ASSASSINATION which really isn't exactly high praise, but what do you want for nothing? This thing gets points for sheer audacity.

HOW IS NICOLE IN THE MOVIE?

NICOLE'S LOOK: Nicole is classical for the head (long straight hair, blond), in her only scene, she appears in half naked in black lingerie, my rating:
 
NICOLE'S NUMBER OF APPEARANCES: Nicole appears only once in the very begening of the movie for 2 minutes, so don't waste your time for the rest of the movie, my rating:
