![Branded to Kill (The Criterion Collection) [Blu-ray]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/510lHRgYM3L._SL160_.jpg)
When Japanese New Wave bad boy Seijun Suzuki (Tokyo Drifter) delivered this brutal, hilarious, and visually inspired masterpiece to the executives at his studio, he was promptly fired. Branded To Kill tells the ecstatically bent story of a yakuza assassin (Joe Shishido, the chipmunk-cheeked superstar from Gate of Flesh) with a fetish for sniffing boiled rice who botches a job and ends up a target himself. This is Suzuki at his most extreme—the flabbergasting pinnacle of hi Read More »*Why don’t we show the price?

Product Review : Branded to Kill (The Criterion Collection) [Blu-ray]
| 6 of 7 people found the following review helpful  Butterflys, rice cookers and Chipmunk Joe make this a Japanese B-film extraordinaire...., By Dr. Morbius (Altair IV) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Branded to Kill (The Criterion Collection) [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray) It certainly does take a certain kind of film buff to enjoy this film. Style over substance is the order of the day, and one must be willing to sacrifice a coherent plot line for an excess of style. In this film the way a thing gets done takes precedence over the thing that is done. Don't get me wrong- the basic idea of the story is simple. however the style almost becomes the story and this is something we are not all used to. (You might want to see Kill Bill first and then Tokyo Drifter before this one). I won't go into the plot here because I think it's better if you don't have any expectations before watching this one. The black and white cinematography is superb. The sound is as good as can be expected. The extras are minimal, however it is a criterion release, so it required viewing. The only thing that could have made it better would be if Bela Lugosi were in it.... 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful (4.5 stars) Unique and brilliant, Seijun Suzuki's masterpiece..., By This review is from: Branded to Kill (Criterion Collection) (DVD) "Branded to Kill", Seijun Suzuki's masterpiece but also a film that led to the filmmaker's firing.While we are graced with films with visual style, humor and coolness by Beat Takeshi, Takashi Miike, Kazuaki Kiriya to name a few... Seijun Suzuki was part of the Nikkatsu company that churned two movies a week and had to work with a low budget, be creative and churn out a film within 25 days. Needless to say, executives didn't understand Suzuki's style, they criticized him, they talked down to him but what they didn't know was that his style was not being rebellious, it was his style. Perhaps Suzuki's style was too surreal because what Nikkatsu wanted was traditional Japanese films that they were used to making. Seijun Suzuki who created 40 B-movies for the company between 1956 and 1967 was anything but traditional, not necessarily a rebel but he created films that he wanted to make,each film being different and now respected as films that were ahead of its...
