BROTHER (2000) is a must-watch, seminal work of Takeshi 'Beat' Kitano's who directs and stars in this brutal crime thriller about a Japanese yakuza forced to flee to Los Angeles after the death of his boss.

In the wake of a failed gang war, Yamamoto ‘Aniki’ (Kitano) arrives in Los Angeles with nothing but a new name and a bag of cash.  Re-uniting with his younger brother, he uses his extensive experience as a hardened gangster, to grow a small-time drug operation into an far-reaching criminal brotherhood, attracting the attention of rival gangs with bloodthirsty consequences.

Great blu-ray of a fantastic film

I love Takeshi Kitano’s movies & his first & only US film ‘Brother’ was deemed a poorer effort on release but I still loved it as it views like a Japanese film with hints of his earlier movie ‘Sonatine’ which I loved. I won’t review the actual movie as apart from a fantastic movie which surprises & entertains.
The Blu-Ray transfer is excellent & definitely an improvement over the DVD release which originally came out & the audio choices are also great. I also really enjoyed the extras included. Another quality release from BFI, my only gripe is that I wish they had done a 4K Blu-Ray edition but still a great addition for any Kitano fan.
