Plot synopsis: The heroine is a killer, she wants to wash her hands in a golden pot, the original organization quit, on her wedding day , the killer organization slaughtered everyone present. Fortunately, she didn't die, she just became a vegetable. Four years later, she woke up and vowed revenge.

I love this movie, why? Because it embodies the beauty of violence, it reflects revenge for an eye for an eye, and fulfills my fantasy of martial arts, of swords and shadows.

The beauty of violence. Violence is also aesthetic. Even if the nature of killing is wrong and cruel, it is still beautiful, the beauty of death.

Homomorphic revenge, the heroine was killed, she wants to give the enemy the same pain, reconciliation, repentance, it is useless, only by letting you experience the hurt that happened to me can make my heart calm. After all, it wasn't that Cinderella was tortured by wicked people, and she had to forgive each other and have a happy ending. This kind of bloody bride is very beautiful and powerful.

Fascinating martial arts. The setting that is more pitiful is in the 21st century. The heroine and her enemy still insist on dueling with cold weapons such as katana and meteor hammer. For things that can be solved with a gun, they have to play big swords, maybe because the director likes it Such a classic and beautiful method of revenge. However, the fights in it are wonderful, there is no repetition, and each duel is thrilling. Let me completely over a martial arts addiction.


Interesting 2 points.
The heroine's control over the killing. When the heroine killed Vinita, she told Vinita to kill the whole family to avenge her, but, in fact, she spared Vinita's family and did not kill her 4-year-old daughter. Instead, he told his daughter that if she still hated her when she grew up, she could take revenge on her. She controlled her desire to kill. Even maintained the etiquette of a samurai. In fact, killing Vinita's daughter was a wise move. Also, during the duel with Crazy 88, the hostess didn't hurt a little guy, because the guy didn't dare to hurt her, he was probably a little guy who went astray. He was spanked by the hostess and taught me a lesson. I was very nervous. Almost died laughing.

There are no good people, this is a story between evil people. The wicked kill without blinking an eye, but they also get killed. Sophie even laughed when she saw Tanaka-kun was killed, but she also had an arm cut off by the heroine, screamed in pain, and begged the heroine for mercy. GOGO didn't blink an eye when killing the wretched uncle, but she was also nailed to the head by the heroine and died in the end. I don't mean that the heroine is a sword that punishes the wicked, but that the wicked kills and will be killed. The director does not advocate uncontrolled killing, he is telling you that if you hurt others, someone will hurt you.

    I saw the one I forgot to mark. The music is super cool, I remember the kendo competition in the Japanese garden was matched with don't let me be misunderstood. The style of painting is completely different but it fits very well. It's super cool to go on a killing spree in the tavern's indoor dry mountains and water.

    Under the big sun, I came to the library to line up Quentin two hours in advance. How to say, I really am a vulgar... However, the large-screen audio-visual effect is good. Quentin deserves to be someone who has watched tens of thousands of video tapes. It is not easy to make a pot of cultural symbols.

  • Hattori Hanzo: [in Japanese; voice-over] For those regarded as warriors, when engaged in combat the vanquishing of thine enemy can be the warrior's only concern. Suppress all human emotion and compassion. Kill whoever stands in thy way, even if that be Lord God, or Buddha himself. This truth lies at the heart of the art of combat.
