In the spirit of the samurai, he has pledged his loyalty to a small time mobster named Louie John Tormey who saved his life many years before. Jim Jarmusch.

Mar 20, Directors C Super Reviewer. Sep 07, Now Forest Whitaker isn't the kind of guy you would normally think of for a smart ice cool hitman flick.
His big lumbering appearance and droopy eye always gives him the look of a bad guy or suit type, not some ninja like assassin. But here we are in dare I say 'Leon' for a black audience?
Take the overall premise of 'Leon' and virtually copy it scene for scene and you have 'Ghost Dog' but with a nice samurai code twist.
Its pretty fair to say when watching that this is heavily influenced by those said films, from the hit sequences to the little girl who 'Ghost Dog' befriends but doesn't train Personally I love this film, its could easily be a sequel to 'Leon' and moves just as sexually and gracefully including some excellent hit scenes, albeit a bit brief.
The film is kinda slow and builds around 'GD' training in the art of samurai whilst living his simple life caring for pigeons.
Your not really sure if your suppose to root for this guy either, he's not doing good stuff after all.
He works for the mob and kills people, breaks into properties and steals cars pretty regularly, he doesn't kill innocents but nor does he care too much about them or their material possessions.
Trying not to mention other films too much here but when you see the American mobsters in this it rings so many bells.
The bad guys are a classic stereotypical cliched lineup of fat, aging, balding, badly dressed 70's looking rejects that could of come from any well known mafia flick you've ever heard of.
You could almost think of these guys as a parody really. Almost caricatures and exactly how you expect Italian American hoods to look and act with the addition of great names like 'Handsome Frank' and the all too common names of Vinny, Ray and Louie.
The cast are familiar too, all the regular faces that normally play wheezing old fat mafioso's. Their boss is Henry Silva who is pretty much the perfect face for a bad guy, a mafia bad guy.
The man is a character acting legend plus his face is evil looking with those sharp cheek bones and odd stretched wrinkle-less like skin complexion, no wonder he was in 'Dick Tracy'.
There isn't too much action here like I said but that isn't a problem really. The film moves slow just like its main player and the outcome is resolved quite quickly really.
The Japanese filling throughout is a nice touch which is obviously there because of the French film it plays homage to but it neither hinders or helps really, its just nice little touches that are pleasant to view.
End of the day the samurai code doesn't really effect the film much apart from what 'GD' allows to happen. Didn't think the film needed the African American influence of rap music though, would of been nice without that, more unique really as the old gangster thing still looms somewhat.
Still a unique film though can't dent that. For me the film is made with the stellar casting for the bad guys, they are really quite amusing, Whitaker does well also in his calm near silent role.
A must see film if you like this kind of thing but just don't expect tonnes of action. Phil H Super Reviewer. May 22, There were some interesting scenes namely, when he shot the guy through the sink in his bathroom but overall I didn't think it was great.
Sarah P Super Reviewer. See all Audience reviews. Louie knows practically nothing about Ghost Dog, however, as the hitman communicates only by homing pigeon.
The mobsters start by tracing all the pigeon coops in town. They find Ghost Dog's cabin atop a building and kill his pigeons.
Ghost Dog realizes he must kill Vargo and his men or they will kill him and his master. During the day, Ghost Dog frequently visits the park to see his best friend, a French-speaking ice cream man named Raymond.
Ghost Dog does not understand French and Raymond does not understand English, but the two nonetheless seem to connect with each other.
Eventually, Ghost Dog invades Vargo's mansion and kills almost everyone he encounters single-handedly, sparing only Louie and Vargo's daughter.
That night, Ghost Dog kills Sonny Valerio at his home by shooting him through a pipe. Ghost Dog expects that Louie will attack him as he feels that Louie is obligated to avenge the murder of his boss, Vargo.
He goes to the park and gives Raymond all his money, helping him to stay in the country. Ghost Dog gives Pearline his copy of Hagakure and encourages her to read it.
Though Louie feels some loyalty to Ghost Dog, he finally confronts him at Raymond's ice cream stand with Raymond and Pearline watching. Ghost Dog is unwilling to attack his master and allows Louie to kill him.
Pearline takes Ghost Dog's gun and shoots at Louie as he flees, but the gun is empty. Ghost Dog dies peacefully with Raymond and Pearline at his side; Louie gets into a car with Vargo's daughter who may have replaced her father as his boss.
Later, Pearline reads the Hagakure. The film was shot mostly in Jersey City, New Jersey , but the movie never mentions where the story is set.
License plates reveal it is in "The Industrial State" [3] and a vehicle from another state has on its license plate "The Highway State", both of which are fictional state nicknames.
Critical response to the film was largely positive. The website's critical consensus was that the movie is "An innovative blend of samurai and gangster lifestyles.
Roger Ebert gave the film 3 out of 4 stars, describing the film as "truly, profoundly weird. His profound sadness, which permeates the touching Whitaker performance, comes from his alienation from human society, his loneliness, his attempt to justify inhuman behavior murder with a belief system the samurai code that has no connection with his life or his world.
Hoberman of The Village Voice gave the film a positive review, describing is as "an impeccably shot and sensationally scored deadpan parody of two current popular modes" hitman films and mafia films.
The film was nominated for a few awards but did not win any of them. US and Japanese versions of the soundtrack album have been released, each with a different set of tracks.
The Japanese release also has some songs not in the film. That movie opens with a quote from an invented Book of Bushido and features a meditative, loner hero, Jef Costello.
Moreover, the peculiar relationship between the heroes of both movies and birds, as companions and danger advisers, is another common theme.
The film contains a number of references to Seijun Suzuki 's Branded to Kill , such as when a bird lands in front of Ghost Dog's rifle scope, referencing the incident with a butterfly in Suzuki's film.
