Tekkonkinkreet is a very hard name to pronounce, but this is not so surprising seeing as this is a Japanese anime. Not to mention that anime are awesome! This film is about an older brother called black, and his younger counterpart called White. Black and White think they own the town, and using a unusual quote from the song by coldplay: 'I used to rule the world,Seas would rise when I gave the word, Now in the morning I sweep alone, Sweep the streets I used to own' (Viva la Vida) Not wanting to give away too much of the film, black has to save treasure town and in order to do so, he has to get rid of all the various gangs of the town. He almost accomplishes this until, one day, the notorious villain snake comes after them and makes their lives much harder with deadly assassins who can do whatever they want. Will the legend of the Minotaur be enough? will they survive or will they get torn apart by insanity and death? watch the film to find out!
