The highly
anticipated second movie from Kinya Kazuaki, the director of CASSHERN,
is a full-blown period actioner that even manages to surpass the filmmaker's
unique visionary ambition. This is the story of the Japanese 'Robin Hood'
Goemon, a folk hero who challenged the absurdly rich emperor and his corrupt
court. The entire production is a larger-than-life extravaganza - live
action in a CGI landscape - with fast speed action, incredible costumes
and eye-boggling visuals. This award-winning movie has been hailed as
"the spectacular cinematic experience of the decade."
A
Japanese film; original widescreen format (16:9), uncut (128 minutes)
in DVD encoded for ALL REGIONS NTSC, playable on any American DVD machine;
in Japanese language with optional English or Chinese subtitles.
