Movie - 13 Assassins
Great cinematography, great story, great acting, great fight choreography. VERY little CGI and there's a fucking 45 minute battle scene! Best flicker picture I've seen this year. This one is gonna pick up a lot of awards. I wish I could have seen it on a massive screen. I heart this movie and so will you.

Can't wait for this to get to somewhere near me. Miike is the greatest director working.

Re: Movie - 13 Assassins
I'm tempted to rent it off of Amazon's Video On Demand before it actually shows in theaters. The sneak peek 3 minutes in the beginning makes the rest look really hard to resist.

Re: Movie - 13 Assassins
Watched yesterday. Solid! Quite different from anything i've seen from Miike before.
Re: Movie - 13 Assassins
Better late than never, finally saw it on my new BluRay device with internets using Amazon Instant Video Prime Etcetera.
Excellent movie, I could enjoy it with my eyes closed, just listening to the snicker-snack of blades cutting through flesh and bone. The Bad Guy was an excellent bad guy in thoroughly sociopathic way. I'll watch it again.

I can't believe I missed this thread. Yes, this is an excellent sword opera. And by sword opera, I mean decapitation and dismemberment porn.
