Negative Positive
Title: good, 3 1/2 stars
Review: I liked this movie. Yes, it was made by the Japanese but unlike others reviewers I don't see the problem with that. That said, gestures and other mannerisms were culturally Japanese, but it didn't hurt the movie. As a long-time martial artist I can say that the fighting techniques, especially the sword work, was very Japanese. Chinese sword play does not look like Samurai sword play.But the story, though historically off a bit, was well told, the acting was fine and the spectacle was, well, spectacular.It is the first DVD I've seen where actors were not listed.It's not that bad. A good one for a rainy Sunday afternoon.
Is the review positive or negative?
