Samurai Monday: When The Last Sword Is Drawn

When The Last Sword is Drawn IMDb
Very awesome movie.  I really liked the story a lot.  Yeah, the last 20 minutes of this long movie was unnecessary in my opinion, but, nothing that would ruin the whole movie.  We got some good samurai action here and some awesome characters.  A little confusing but love that it went back and forth between the present and the past.  Beautiful imagery.  It's about a poor guy who becomes a samurai and does many jobs to send money to his family.  Along the way, he starts becoming a true honorable samurai but stuff happens of course.  The first half had some comedic elements to it but most of the movie was filled with drama and samurai action.  I would highly recommend this movie to samurai fans, maybe even worth buying.   One of the best samurai movies I've seen.
