Not bad but feels a little flat.
So it's about a group of samurai who was ordered to kill a certain aristocrat on his way to home, and how they plan and prepare and finally how they fight with the retinue of the lord. Behind the events the theme is how to be samurai in an era when samurais are outdated relics of the past.
The shots are nice, the fight scenes... was shot from a little too close so it cannot really see what's happening but it makes it look like it is very action packed, and I didn't like it, not to mention it's the usual "hey we are vastly outnumber that guy but we're gonna just jumping around in the background until he kills everyone around him one by one" style. I'm not sure how could they do otherwise tho.
They could have spend more time on the preparation phase, make it more detailed.
The comic relief a little bit lame but has it's moments.
