Survive Style 5 Plus 2004 DVDRip XviD-iMBT

A while back a rlslog reader gave me the idea to start doing Releaselog Staff picks of scene releases. I thought this was a really good idea and shared it with some of the staff who agreed and so did Martin. Bleez has already posted a first staff pick (Donnie Darko) but I just thought I’d introduce the actual idea properly. The plan is that when there are no other posts to make, Staff members can share some of their favourite releases with you. This will give you as much rlslog reading pleasure as possible, since a lot of you have noted that you hate returning to rlslog after a few hours and finding nothing new to read/download. The staff pick idea might also help you find new and cool stuff! Feedback to this idea is welcome in the comments.
My very first pick will be one of my all time favourite films: Survive Style 5+. Its very hard to explain what this film is about or what makes it such a great watch. Its even difficult for me to explain why I love it so much, but its a mixture of great cinematography, a great soundtrack and a cool Japanese cast (plus Vinnie Jones lol). The atmosphere of the movie is simply amazing and the colours and pretty much all the locations and sets could be considered art. If you like linear plots this film is probably not something for you, since the film follows 5 different stories (as the title implies) that in some way intertwine in the end. However if you like film eye-candy with fun music and an endearing plot, this might be something for you. It probably helps if you have a general interest in Japanese movies and culture but even if you don’t I urge you to check this rls out.

A man continually trying and failing to get his wife to stay dead; a self-absorbed ad agency creative director who comes up with one unworkably inane idea after another; a Brittish hitman who only wants to know everyone’s function in life; and an unfortunate office worker and father whose brain is left scrambled after a stage hypnotist is murdered in mid-performance. Starting off as unrelated plot lines, they intertwine with each other as they continue on their respective ways.

Quality: The quality of this rls is great. iMBT have supplied a top notch DVDRip at 1178kb/s video bitrate and 448kb/s bitrate AC3 audio. Picture quality is great and the colours are all vibrant and saturated as they were meant to be seen. You really can’t ask for much more from a DVDRip rls. English subtitles are naturally included.

This film includes the now rather famous Vinnie Jones as a British assassin. His role is pretty funny but definitely not the highlight of the film. Performances by Tadanobu Asano, Hiroshi Abe, Jai West and the beautiful Reika Hashimoto (although she dosen’t speak a single word during the entire film) make this film shine
. This film is still being seeded at The Pirate Bay (see torrent link below) but by very few people. If you enjoy the film, please help seed it.
