13 Assassins


This movie had been on my "to watch list" for some time. Now I wish I would have watched it sooner.

Overall I thought it was a great samurai movie. Tons of action, good triumphing over evil, I even enjoyed the humor brought in by the last edition to the team.

Most samurai movies have cheesy sound effects and music, but this one does not. The score was good and blended well in the movie.

I paid attention to the cuts in the movie, and I must say the director did an awesome job. There are multiple scenes where the story is told through the eyes of the actors.

  1. I enjoy this type of movie as well. I grew up watching Bruce Lee and all the others of that era.

    You are right the funny carachter added at the end was entertaining in the midst of this blood bath. I see his acting very similar to the way the Chan movies deliver a rol (However this roll was better to me!)
