The good thing is that despite the difference of cultures, the story is highly entertaining and is worthwhile watching this movie. The bad thing is that the movie is to be continued. My vote is seven.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eTitle (Brazil): u0026quot;O Mestre da Guerrau0026quot; (u0026quot;The Master of the Waru0026quot;)”
