Love this one. <3

Had a small group of friends over to watch this. I promised sushi and a smaurai flick. Most of them are used to modern film pacing, explosions, special-de-fects, and knew little about older period/samurai movies. I was on a mission of exposure though.

They were a bit impatient at first, pacing can be an issue, but I pitched it as, “An old-school western with swords”. We had a fun time laughing at the soundtrack here and there and I noticed folks started to get into it more and more.

Some weeks and days later my buddies would walk up to me and ask, “Hey, you know that movie was pretty good. What was it called again?”. Hooked.

Careful with this one. It will make you a samurai flick fan.

Next time I may have to get out the saki and try “Samurai Fiction” for a real riotous laugh fest.
