First of six Lone Wolf & Cub movies, all of them are fantastic if you’re into Samurai stuff, this one sets things up nicely, watch them all!

A blood splattered damn good time! That final fight had me nearly falling out of my chair. Peak samurai entertainment!

Somewhere between Zatoichi and Sonny Chiba sits this. Beautiful, exciting, well-adapted, arterial spray, beheadings and a hard turd song.

Basically a feature length act one, but has some really solid action sequences

What a great film. So much to unpack here with few words. Great story, characters, action, and cinematography. If you like Mandalorian watch

Has exemplary action sequences and started a series of films that were very influential on the industry as a whole. Great samurai movie.

Dad goes badass on crooks threatening to harm his kid. It’s THE MANDALORIAN with samurai and lots of blood spurts. Recommended!

The crazy gore is fun, but the story is full of unnecessary info that only confuses. Needed to be streamlined and the pacing could be better
