fun time

Yes; a fun time with a Samurai period movie. Is on the light side but with great production and good acting. You have here all the types of characters that you can find in more serious dramas and with Shinobi in the mix. This time is showing a good heart daimyo and loyal Samurais, a facet that normally is not showed. The main intention of the movie; besides to pass a good time is to show that the differences can be equalized with good spirit and good acts. That to be a good person can pay in the end.
