This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

Good concept, poorly executed.

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

An excellent ninkyo eiga the setting is Osaka, 1907. Honourable and loyal Asajiro lives in a discordant social environment, he has a strong noble desire to maintain the clean and respected business reputation of his clan. When his boss is incapacitated Asajiro and his group are confronted with serious internal & external challenges... Director Tai Kato wonderful cinematic style builds a gripping tale, with richly drawn characters, the outstanding story is multi faceted, one of loyalty, honour, romance, and rivalry. Action packed, there is much blood drawn in revenge... Highly Recommended.
