"Kamui The Lone Ninja" by Yojimbo
Yojimbo - wrote on 09/25/2012
An ex-ninja on the run from his clan befriends a fisherman hoping to leave his former life behind him and enjoy a simple life, but his past inevitably catches up with him with violent consequences. Kamui is an amusingly oddball chop-socky martial arts film based on a popular Japanese manga. It captures the spirit of the comic strip with plenty of high kicking, wire flying violence as people bounce all over the screen dispatching pointy death on nearly everyone they meet. It is rather episodic and the story takes some bemusing turns (particularly when it turns into a Kung Fu version of Jaws!) but its sheer bizarreness acts to keep the audience interested as you never quite know what's going to happen next. Some of the visual effects are a little ropey and subtlety is most definitely left …
