Paul S @PManRager Aug 6 It is riddled with plot holes, but it was still incredibly fun to watch. While the fantasy element was a captivating touch, I feel this movie could have benefited greatly from being a more grounded, historically accurate story. Despite its flaws, I enjoyed watching it, and there were plenty of awesome action sequences and stunning visuals to leave me hooked. I definitely recommend it for action, fantasy, and period-piece fans!

It's not the greatest movie ever, but it's entertaining enough and has a solid cast. This is one of those films where people aren't being entirely honest (usually) about why they're down rating it. Some people are offended that the main character isn't Japanese, and they seem to think this is "whitewashing" despite Keanu Reeves only being part European. I guess White people get the blame no matter what. The other group is annoyed by the ending of the film, which will understandably alienate a large portion of the audience. Neither group seems to want to admit that their cause for distain here is pretty subjective, so they'll gin up some technical reason for why this totally serviceable film is actually the "worst they've ever seen". The sexy witch played by Rinko Kikuchi alone was worth my time. I also enjoyed seeing Hiroyuki Sanada (as always).

Marry the most beautiful girl in town and angers all whose underwear is too tight. Be man, beast, or witch, the Anglo from foreign lands will set things right. Plenty of nice hairstyles and cool swords. See more Karthik Y. @madkarthi May 23 It is visually very good. But story plot wise it is too predictable. We can easily predict everything what is gonna happen next. The only good thing is the production values are very nice. Seeing Keanu Reeves as a samurai in the film is full of fun. But too much fictional elements are there and that is getting my mood off completely. See more Pongo K @RT48921889 Apr 6 Too much for too little. Not very exiting, but some entertainment.
