Zatoichi and Yojimbo fans will love this!Shintaro Katsu has aged and put on some weight, but the Zatoichi wry humor is still there, as is his lightning sword-play.Toshiro Mifune remains his Yojimbo double-dealing self.Together, they are lost souls, trying to survive in a miserable world filled with crooks, scoundrels, and murderers. Try as they may, their humanity keeps peeping through.It is refreshing to have enjoyable story plots instead of the continual escalating into stupid absurdity seen in most sequels these days.
Sure Zatoichi has put on a few pounds. Yeah, he broke his sword & his swordplay is @ a minimum. But the plot is intricate, characters rich and animated, the twists and turns, keeps one wondering who the bad guy really is. Toshiro Mifune is his old self, loud, rude and drunk most of the time. The interaction between these two is a joy to watch. And as usual, some pretty Japanese eye candy to balance it all out. Well worth the investment and IMHO one of the best in the series.
Good action film. One of my favorites growing up.
good
