so. i just had a flash of a movie i once saw as a kid. only thing i recall is it being awesome. and also some scenes.
i don't know but i think it could be if not from Japan, then Asian related. main character was asian.
the movie was about an assassin who had a tradition dragon tattoo on his back. and i think he wore a mask when he did the killings (nut that is just maybe).
the most memorable scene was about how he got a gun on a plane. he had a briefcase which contained as he sad "a priceless painting". which it wasn't - it was something like a rubber painting which he ripped open on the plane and took out a gun.
maybe some of you will know what i am talking about. it could be like 1997-2000 film.
thanks
