Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Aimed squarely at anyone who likes watching someone settle a score and anyone drawn to the darker side of the street. A revenge story, so expect the pressure to build to a reckoning. If you loved Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair or Lady Snowblood, start here.
- The mood
- Gritty.
- The pace
- Lean, with little time wasted, at 1 hr 24 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- It's in Japanese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1960: an older pace and style.
- Skip it if you like your heroes clean-cut.
At the end of the Greater East Asia War, young Amada Koichi and his father were wrongfully accused as spy suspects and his father died in prison after being tortured. Ten years later, Amada seeks for revenge on the three men responsible for his father death.
