    One of my favorite Takeshi Miike movies! I was excited to see this western movie with english speaking Japanese characters. Yusuke plays one incrediably sexy sword weilding, gun slinging (white) Genji leader Yoshitune. Hideaki Ito made quite the handsome lone gunslinger with a quick trigger fingers. I was hooked! The action is fast and the style cool. I love the blend of kiminos and jeans, the costumes are in a word or two... fun and sexy. I was sad at the ending, then again... Snow and blood, white and red are quite fluid and blends well together. So fitting. I, like many women fans wanted the Genji leader Yoshitune to win at the end... after all he was the only one left standing... or so I thought. Suiyaki Western Django is worth having in my western / foreign movie collection. I encourage y'all to check it out.

    Curiosity drove me to rent this movie. The concept and style kept my expectations high. Disappointment led me to turn it off.

    This started out kooky, but once I got the hang of the style, I loved it! I wanted Yoshitsune to win in the final battle! Only problem is some long scenes that seem like filler.

    Tame Miike but I'm under the impression that he was trying to pull a Hollywood remake of a beloved cult classic down to the production value which, even if it wasn't high, looks like it and the cliche dialogue. Perhaps a subtle slap in the face to the current remake trend?

    If Kung Fu Hustle were a spaghetti western, I imagine it would look a lot like this. I loved the supersaturated colors and the highly stylized fight scenes. Maybe I should check out some of the flicks that inspired this to gain a better appreciation of what Miike is trying to achieve here. I'm not really much for Westerns.
