Guest kungfusamurai Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Great film. Don't expect much fighting. Most of the action happens in the last 20min, but don't let that scare you away from the film. It's really well done and sucks you right in.

Guest jirpy100 Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 Yeah, word of warning. Even though it was made in the mid 60's, it's very old-fashioned in many respects. But ultimately rewarding because of the competent direction. This is not a chanbara film, but a jidai-geki, if one ever needed to distinguish.
