"Thirteen Assassins": Takashi Miike's remake of the 1963 masterpiece, is also the script of the people's anti-tyranny of evil officials, 13 people fighting wits to kill 200 people is more vivid than "300 Warriors", close to "Seven Samurai".

    It's not as serious as Miike, and there are only a few bad scenes to remind the audience that the director is indeed sick.

    Unlike other samurai movies, one is that there are no characters in care at all, and the other is that the decisive battle is greatly extended (at least 40 minutes). I think the killing sequence of this film should be difficult to surpass in recent years. , After the official opening, it was cool to the ceiling in minutes. So it seems that the rooftop battle of "Crow High School" is just Miike's practice for this film.
