Underrated actress


How sad, MovieChat has been around like half-a-decade now and I am the first to ever post on her board.

I first took notice of Rinko when I watched Pacific Rim. I was like, Who is this spritely Japanese thing that is stealing her scenes?

Sometime later I saw her in Kumiko The Treasure Hunter and now I'm watching her in Tokyo Vice on HBO Max.

She's a good actress, has screen presence and is cute. I'm surprised she hasn't gotten more roles in American movies and shows (she obviously is happy to accept them). Maybe her accent is a little too thick for producers.

This is a very nice photo of her, but that's all I got.
Good of you to point her out.

Thank you for your input.

If you enjoy big-budget sci-fi action, go watch Pacific Rim.

If you enjoy off-beat indies, watch Kumiko, The Treasure Hunter.

If you enjoy crime thrillers set in the Land of the Rising Sun and where Michael Mann directs the pilot, watch Tokyo Vice.

Yeah, she's great. Even in schlock like '47 RONIN'.
