Branded to Kill

Neutrality

edit
  • Presents film in a biased way
  • No reviews from Japan at all, all western "trendies", all "cult movie".
  • Misrepresents Tarantino etc.
  • Does not mention that most of cast (Mariko Ogawa, Annu Mari) are actually complete non-entities.

Comprehensiveness

edit
  • Says little about background, film-making in 1960s
  • "those whacky Japanese" mentality of article.

Accuracy

edit
  • "Devil's job" taken from subtitles
  • As one of Seijun Suzuki's most influential films, Branded to Kill has been acknowledged as a source of inspiration by such internationally renowned directors as Hong Kong's John Woo, South Korea's Chan-wook Park and America's Jim Jarmusch and Quentin Tarantino.[50] - sourcing is very vague, it just goes to a newspaper article which claims this.

Writing quality

edit

The "Reception" section is badly-written hodge-podge of facts, not a coherent piece of prose.

Most of the article does not read very well.
