Title: The movie is a masterpiece, but avoid the DVD
Review: The movie is a masterpiece worth 5+ stars, one of Kitano's best works. But I was totally dissapointed when I so that the subtitles where burned over the film, as a movie lover I consider this outrageous, the film beautifull cinematography is totally ruined by them. The quality of the DVD is not up to the level of the movie. I can't belive that to this date there are companies creating dvds with subtitles burned over a movie. Please wait and see if Criterion Collection eventually releases "Hanna Bi", they do respect movie lovers.The artwork is lousy, I don't know why they changed Kitano's beautifull artwork which is the original to the japanese release.
