Blu-ray Review: Yakuza Weapon - Page 2

A low-budget, Shot-on-HD-Video mess, Well Go USA brings Yakuza Weapon to America in a Blu-ray/DVD combo, and a video transfer that is fairly decent for what it’s worth (and really brings out the bad CGI). A Japanese DTS-HD 5.1 MA is the default sound selection, with a Japanese 2.0 track also available. Truth be told, all of the characters shout so much that you may just want to turn the volume down. Fortunately, there are English subtitles that successfully translate the off-the-wall dialogue (and the scenes they belong to) to keep you dumbfounded.

Special feature-wise, there are a couple of featurettes, some deleted scenes, test footage, and a heap of trailers for other Well Go USA titles — most of which I would recommend over Yakuza Weapon any ol’ day.
