Pros: beautiful poicture quality and solid audio; good bonus features
Cons: nothing worth noting

Seijun Suzuki’s Branded to Kill now appears to be a quasi-spoof of the Japanese yakuza genre, but it’s likely that its intent upon its initial release was merely to entertain and to do so on a very limited budget and with two primary guarantees that usually work to get folks into a theater: action and sex. Both are present in spades in an otherwise wacky film that doesn’t worry about dramatic or cinematic continuity, character inconsistencies, or logic beyond the sights and sounds of the moment.
