A New Wave?

Rating: 10/10 (26 January 2004)

I doubt this will be the new hot genre (not that it is new), but I'd be overjoyed if it were. This is one of the top martial arts movies I have seen. It is full of the old school style and flare of the 70s Kung Fu/Samurai movies but has a touch of Tarantino style that I love. I recommend this movie to anyone who likes Kung Fu/Samurai movies dripping with class. I'm a big fan of blood and guts and this movie didn't disappoint. The only downfall I can think of is the Anime in the middle of the movie, but at least it was bloody.
