“I rare encountered a Japanese Samurai movie this bad. Terrible script, lot of bad actors to play those assassins. The story line is like a jumping bean hopping around with random directions, those assassins, some of them just looked like jerks or clowns, even those guys really existed in the Japanese history, this movie simply ridiculed them to the extreme. Some of the characters, such as the famous Ninja and those familiar names appeared in different Japanese Samurai movies were completely twisted. 10/10? Are you serious? If this movie is 10/10, how you justify those really really good Japanese Samurai movies and how you rate them? 100/10?”
