I thought the mix between comedy, martial arts and philosophical concepts was brilliantly done in this movie. Not to mention the superb acting.
I believe fans of martial arts, comedy and hidden philosophy will surely enjoy this movie. Admittedly, the comedy may appear childish at moments, but the great acting, story and dramatic moments compensate for it. Honestly, without the mixture of these elements, this movie would not have appeared as interesting and appealing.
I can understand that it might be oriented towards a more adult audience, due to the fact that older watchers may relate better to certain aspects of the movie, but I still quite enjoyed it overall. I gave it a 7, but because my parents seemed to have liked it more than I did, I believe it be worthy of an overall 8.
Watch, you won't be disappointed!

1,2,3, ambush
This is one of those movies that is so bad you are pretty sure it was intentionally made to be bad.. it could be funny if you shared that type of humour... unfortunately I do not. Some of the short dialog is actually pretty good... mimicking the good old days of the 30s... or maybe 60s cinema. Consciously ignoring any progress made since then...Watching this movie you will be subjected to som sort of short dialog (if any )blind guy gets amused, ambushers die,... repeat... Short dialog with women in trouble... women get ambushed, blind guy shows up... ambushers die... Repeat or mix the two...
An example of short dialog could go something like this:
Bad guy: Oh look I got this sward, lts test it out on the next beggar who passes by....
Bad guy ambushes the first beggar he sees pass by...
Beggar/our blind guy cuts of the dudes sward...
Showing yet again how how those on top (or on the way to the top) view those at the bottom. So yes the little dialog we get s not that bad.
Most of the men in this are bald, and some run around with spears, others with swards,The women seem to be pretty smart and there is a transgirl in here that gets misgendered a lot.
I have a lot of issues with both our so called blind guy as well as the way they talk about gender but I do appreciate some of the other parts leaving me confused and with a bit to many issues to level the score of this so bad it could be entertaining if you are in to that stuf... also so bad it is viewed as a masterpiece in some circles making me wonder what am I not getting... or it could just not be my type of sward...
Rewatch value high because you may need ot watch it a few times to get it
Also while I can not really recommend it as a whole, do watch a few scenes they are indeed kind of funny... the first time around... once you get to the tenth ambush the charm kind of subsides...

Takeshi Kitano is male actor, writer and director of this movie. His acting is ok probably cause he plays a blind person but between the some scenes on storyplay there was a huge gap.
I can't say fighting scene is not good but the movie was shot in 2003 so during the sword fight scenes blood splits are seems sloppy (sound like i have a hidden serial killer inside... :P )
Thats all. If you want to still see the movie i hope you enjoy...
