10/10
One of my most favourate films
9 January 2014
Sword of Vengeance is a hugely pleasant surprise. The film is surprisingly mature in its visuals, storytelling, and action. It feels way ahead of its time and it is quite amazing. It is a perfect blend of depth and pure samurai action. One of the best samurai (chanbara) movies I've ever seen. Granted, I haven't seen many. I did hugely enjoyed this film.

Lone Wolf and Cub gets its appeal from its hugely unique style. The subtle intensity of the fight scenes in the sound design (or lack thereof) and cinematography is staggering. There is this powerful aura within the film that is utterly engaging.

Overall, Lone Wolf and Cub is an outstanding chanbara film that achieves a powerful unique marriage of style and substance. an absolute masterpiece when it comes to the samurai genre
