Featured review
It was good! Don't put too much credit on the negative comments
Seen this a long time ago and just watched it again today. I thought I would give my comment for those who haven't seen it. Definitely NOT the worst movie ever. A story about an assassin learning how to love and care for others.
I like this movie a lot. It is what you would expect of a fantasy action film. The cinematography was great! Although there were some scenes were it was a bit too much, it's not that big a deal. The style of the film was meant to be fantasy-like.
I don't get why people are hating the main character saying "he doesn't talk much" and that if he does "he can't say it straight with his accent". Well what do you expect? He's an assassin from the east. He lived a life of solitude and was taught not to care for anything or anyone. It will be unnatural for him to be all smiles and chatter and speak fluent English with American accent.
The action scenes were great. Very fluid and dance-like. Yes, the fight between the main character and his teacher could have been more. Don't expect a heavy dose of action because, again, the main point of the film is the assassin's journey into finding his humanity. Still, the action provided are more than enough.
I really recommend this film. Anyone who hates it most likely just didn't understand the message.
