It is very commercial

[Haowen]

No, really? I thought it was one of those non-commercial charity movies that Hollywood likes to donate to the poor entertainment-starved people who don't have cable TV.

You are very smart Haowen

This is horrible! they use katanas like they're fighting with rubber bats. A real movie with real swords isn't going to be suitable for all ages.

Is it just me, or did anyone else think that it was another Charlie's Angels movie?

Although I agree that pop culture should as far away from sword fight scenes as possible. I remember reading an interview/article about some kung fu movie (I think it was Iron Monkey). One of the actor/martial artists made a comment on how in China they spend days on even little fight scenes to do it right and reduce the amount of wires and gadgets needed to make the actors do as much of the fight scenes as they possibly could for real without movie magic. They made comments about how they couldn't believe how sloppy and quickly US movie companies slap together fight scenes. It is really bad. I think this movie looks like another example of such a quality made film <snicker snicker>.

what do you expect, its a Tarantino production, something I swear to stay as far as possible since I watched reservoir dogs and pulp fiction.
I'd rather sit through a meiji mura taikai tape for a whole day.

I'd rather sit through hours and hours of boring home videos than watch a Tarantino film. In fact, I'd voluntarily submit myself to watching the collected works of Roman Polansky before wasting time on a Tarantino film.

ps - yes, i'm aware that many of polansky's films were made by playboy productions. his romeo and juliet was a playboy production, got a few laughs out of the class in high school when we watched it.
