- Who'll love it
- Aimed squarely at anyone who appreciates a well-choreographed fight and anyone looking to switch off and smile. The fight choreography is a big part of the appeal.

- Light and funny.
- The pace
- Zips along, at 1 hr 33 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in Italian, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1962: an older pace and style.
- Skip it if you're after something serious tonight.
Two Sicilian cousins are forced to go to Japan to collect an inheritance. Once they arrive they realize they will have to adapt to the local customs. The tour will turn into a long series of troubles: the Sicilian cousins, to obtain the inheritance, will have to turn into real samurai.
