Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
A natural pick for fans of a good revenge story and anyone who appreciates a well-choreographed fight. A revenge story, so expect the pressure to build to a reckoning. Shelve it next to Ran or Lady Snowblood. The fight choreography is a big part of the appeal.
The mood
Exciting.
The pace
Gives its people room to develop, at 1 hr 32 min.
What might put you off
  • It's in Japanese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

Seeking revenge after a brutal attack that left him disfigured, a former assassin gets drawn into a high-stakes conflict over a valuable treasure.
