Returner
I am so stoked right now. Netflix actually has this film (released back in 2002) and I found a link to it earlier while browsing through here and it caught my eye. Just popped it in the 'queue' (that makes 486, wheee... we are such movie-whores!)VIEW TRAILER
SYNOPSIS
The year is 2084 and the human race is fighting an alien militia to save the last remnant of civilization. A young heroine named Milly (ANNE SUZUKI) escapes the war and jumps back in time to present-day Japan in an attempt to change history and prevent the demise of her people. Milly’s return lands her in the middle of a local crime war between Miyamoto (TAKESHI KANESHIRO), a street-smart gunman, and Mizoguchi (GORO KISHITANI), Japan’s crime leader. Milly must coerce Miyamoto to help chase down the extraterrestrial and save the human race…But first Milly must convince Miyamoto she's for real. In the visceral, dark, cold world of the streets, these two fight against the evil and ignorance that will destroy everything.
