The Warrior's Way

My first 1/5.

Bad film looking for any excuse for not well done fights. The plot: Some form of far east warrior is told to kill a baby to wipe out a rival clan and instead saves the child and runs off with it - to the American Wild West. Old clans then pursues him there intent on killing both of them and whoever else he had befriended on his way. Wasn't feeling the film at all.

A very pretty film - feast for the eyes. The story itself is of the life of a courtesan in a brothel, her loves and losses. With this film however it is the physical display of her gilded cage that sticks in the mind. That and some the the witty barbed remarks between the courtesans. I'll leave you with the usual trailer (sans subtitles). 3/5.
