Joel Silver and the Wachowski brothers team up to produce this fast paced action movie! Directed by James McTeigue who was the first assistant director to the Wachowski brothers on Matrix revolutions and Matrix reloaded. I personally am a big fan of the Tokugawa (Edo) period; which I know after watching hours of Anime. The whole idea of a brutally trained warrior wielding deadly weapons has been a rush as far as my taste for entertainment goes. For all you similar aficionados out there, this should be a movie NOT to miss. The trailer looks impressive with great action and some great CGI action and slow-mo sequences! The lead actor, I'm not too familiar with but all I care is that the Wachowski's won't dis-appoint. The plot is almost stereotypical: Master trains kid, kid grows and excels, sent on an immoral mission that he doesn't fulfill, turns against his clan, is hunted to death and yes there is also the love interest in there somewhere. But who cares as long as there...
