I went to see Takeshi's new movie, Zatoichi, the other night and was thoroughly impressed yet bemused by "Beats" latest offering. Some scenes in the film were simply bizzare, whilst on the whole it is an enjoyable, albeit bloody, affair. Has anyone else seen this yet ?

Isn't Zatoichi the huge series about the blind guy who wanders feudal Japan getting into trouble? Sort of the Mr. Magoo of Japan? I didn't know they were still making those. I know Mifune had cameos in some of the earlier ones but I've never taken the time to watch them. I'm more interested in the upcoming Criterion release of Stray Dog.

I think thats it - this is a movie though. Kitano Takeshi wrote, stars and directs it.Originally Posted by rallynavvie

You live a lot closer to Discount Video than I do. I bet they've got quite a lot of the Zatoichi series on VHS. Have you been in there to take a look at their foreign film offering? Almost makes me want to move to the Uptown area. Almost... :POriginally Posted by housepig
