Survive Style 5+ is a 2004 Japanese film directed by Gen Sekiguchi and produced by Hiroyuki Taniguchi. [1] It stars Tadanobu Asano, Kyōko Koizumi, Reika Hashimoto, Jai West, Sonny Chiba and Vinnie Jones.
The film follows five simultaneous, loosely linked plot lines, that intertwine and scramble together. A man ( Tadanobu Asano) keeps killing his wife ( Reika Hashimoto) and burying her in the woods only to find her alive, furious, and waiting for him when he returns home. A suburban family's life is disrupted when the father ( Ittoku Kishibe) is permanently hypnotized into believing he is a bird and tries to learn how to fly. A trio of aimless youth pass time by burgling houses. A murderous advertising executive ( Kyōko Koizumi) tries to imagine ideas for commercials. The stories clash together through the intervention of a thuggish hitman ( Vinnie Jones) and his translator ( Yoshiyoshi Arakawa).
