Keanu Reeves is always a crowd please. The inclusion of Iko Uwais in this film made it a must see for me.

It is quite startling to see national treasure Keanu in an unfavorable role. Once the sheer shock of that wore off I was able to settle in and enjoy the movie for everything that it is.

Truth be told, I'm a sucker for old school styling when it comes to martial arts. This movie has that in spades. The action is very reminiscent of the ilk of years gone by. I truly enjoyed that about it.

The acting was alright. The story was ok, if not a bit telegraphed. If you're a fan of martial arts movies in general (or of Keanu, as he also directed) the I would endorse seeing this movie. If you're looking for a big budget action flick or a billion dollar blockbuster, this isn't it. But you will have a good old fashioned enjoyable flick on your hands.

An all out exercise for the eye-balls! This is a very violent, extremely bloody/gory martial arts film. I think they must use the same techniques used by Asian cinema with almost fountains of blood with every slice and dice of a Ninja sword. Revenge is the plot, of course....way over the top, humanely impossible action scenes, some cool effects and some great fights. It makes Kill Bill look tame in comparison.

Book 3 in the Tokyo Ghoul series has a lot of action, drama, and information packed into it. Kaneki continues to work at the cafe with Touka, and she also begins to train him in martial arts. Hinata's life sees some major changes, and she's forced to deal with much unpleasantness at a young age, since the ghoul investigators are after her when they recognize her that her family is made up of ghouls.
