Bakemono

During the peaceful time, Haru returns to his hometown after an art of war journey, where he runs into a group of low-rank Samurais. His best friend from childhood Roku was among them. The Samurais laugh at Haru saying that the art of war is already outdated. Feeling infuriated, Haru draws his sword, but the Samurais wouldn't. He learns that there is a sword ban in the town. The local feudal lord finds out about Haru and orders his bodyguard "Kiyomitsu" to capture Haru alive. Kiyomitsu finally discovers Haru and attacks him with great glee, but.

Superb acting, excellent story-line, great flow. I highly recommend!

Nice. Expect very much from the cast and director. And all expectations fulfilled.

I absolutely love this movie. I have seen it 2 times and every time I see it, I get goosebumps. I don't know why ,maybe is the narrative or the music.

I loved watching this movie. Very good movie and it was kind of sad at the end. A MUST watch movie.

If you are a fan of Oba then you'll love this movie. Of course, he plays a similar character to this other roles but so do most actors.

Such a great film. Well worth the watch.

Great movie definitely a great buy.

Hideki Oshima script is just perfect. Basically a perfect film.
