The film was remake of the film of the same name in 1963. Surprisingly, the director of the film is actually the cult master Takashi Miike. It is definitely the first time for him to steer such an orthodox period drama. The effect is not bad, in a heavy history. I feel that some cult film shots are appropriately inserted, such as a naked woman whose limbs are chopped off. There are many characters in the film. Although it is difficult to recognize the face one by one, it can leave a unique for most of the characters. In terms of character portraying, Miike is relatively successful, and the rhythm of the film is not slow. The background of the picture is quite characteristic and has a sense of history. In photography, especially the terminal perspective of Shojiro. People have deep memories, they are very special, they are also very appropriate, and they are used just right. The film is not only an action film, but also has a certain depth in connotation. Although the discussion of "Samurai" and the criticism of the social system at that time did not clearly say anything, the meaning of countless scenes and lines is enough for the audience to have As I feel, this is good enough for movies. Perhaps the biggest feature of this film is that the end of the film is close to an hour-long killing scene. Although it is long, it must not be too long and redundant. It is a bit messy, but at the last glance, there are many intricate designs. The chaos actually has its own. Zhang Fa, the killing is cruel, but it doesn't make people feel bloody enough to look down. All this shows that Takashi Miike's control skills as an excellent director are coming, and he is looking forward to his new work "Yi Ming". . .
There are many stars in the film. The most impressive is Yamada Takayuki and Inagaki Goro who plays Matsuhira Qishao. Inagaki Goro brings out a gloomy and perverted killing demon vividly. Yamada Takayuki is still working hard. Looking forward to his performance in the lower part of "Killing the City" Performance. . .
