Branded to Kill, the wildly perverse story of the yakuza's rice-sniffing "No. 3 Killer," is Seijun Suzuki at his delirious best. From a cookie-cutter studio script, Suzuki delivered this brutal, hilarious, and visually inspired masterpiece-and was promptly fired. (texto oficial de la distribuidora)

The first 20 minutes, with the errant behaviour of one of the protagonists and the confused editing, were almost unbearable. Then, thankfully, it turned into a nicely atmospheric, cinematically imaginative spectacle, but again with confusing editing. You sit with it out of curiosity, trying to understand what Refn and Tarantino see in it and why Criterion took it under their wing, but it just didn't draw me into the plot, I just don't give a damn about these rambling Godard-esque films. Tokyo Drifter, which I liked a bit more, has the same visual charm, similarly inventive use of music, but the plot is just as rudimentary and the continuity of the scenes completely disjointed. Probably Suzuki is not my cup of tea.
