Pirated...already! (not good)

Wanted some info on this film, whilst searching, I noticed links to English language 1080p clean torrents ALREADY in search results. With comments like "works great", "perfect video & sound", etc., I presume they must be genuinely decent.

I wondered how on earth has this film managed to already be pirated (and in full HD too), despite it not being released anywhere worldwide on BD/legal download yet? Seems insane that studios are still not able to control copies in the year 2015.

A shame, as I saw it legally, and it deserves to recoup and exceed its investment so we can have more in the future, and given it's a great piece of work by all involved.

Thoughts please...

EDIT: should add, that at this point, it's only been released theatrically in a few markets, most very recently.

Actually limited release films have a strong pirate following due to them being so hard to see of you don't live near a city.

The blu-ray version has yet been released in italy, and the torrents come frome there.

Yes it's been released in Italy, but only since 28 October 2015 on BD & DVD. The torrent comments are dated from months ago, going back to August - one can only presume copies got out early or something?

Anyway, it's great, so defo worth a go see. :-)
