A Masterpiece!
It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
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.
