Horrible directing.

This was my least favorite Zatoichi film.

I adore Zaotichi, the character, the actor, the storyline, the swordplay, but the cinematography and directing in this film were the worst. While it's a must see because it is Zatoichi, expect horrible footage, terrible camera angles, and an overall lack of directorial maturity.
