The Pleasure Hotel

When Kaoru Majima, Moe Sakura and Nanami Hirose signed on for The Pleasure Hotel (2017), the result was always going to be worth watching. But nobody expected her to bring this level of intensity.

The chemistry between Kaoru Majima and Moe Sakura is obvious from the first shared frame. There is nothing manufactured about the way these two engage with each other. Kaoru Majima brings her asian front and center throughout this film, and the camera does not miss a single moment of it.

The action in this film builds from the first scene and Kaoru Majima is right there for all of it. Genuine reactions, real chemistry, and a performance that justifies the runtime completely.

Pink Eiga has a clear track record in the Asian space and this film shows exactly why they have built that reputation. The HD production means the visuals are sharp and consistent from start to finish. Every detail comes through clearly.

Everything from Feature and International is represented here and none of it feels like an afterthought. The way Japanese comes together here is what separates a forgettable release from one worth bookmarking.

The Pleasure Hotel is one of those films you come back to. Once you watch it you will immediately understand why. Kaoru Majima, Moe Sakura and Nanami Hirose at this level is something you do not forget.
