Customer Reviews of Zatoichi the Blind Swordsman, Vol. 5 - On the Road
Zatoichi at his finest! Let me say this, I saw my first Zatoichi movie back when I was 14 and since then I was absolutely hooked.
The move was beautifully done and I can not stress enough what an awesome character Shintaro Katsu can play. I have all of his VHS tapes and I am slowing starting to build my DVD collection. I have DVD's from overseas subtitled and let me tell you.
It invokes a feeling that no one anywhere, time, or place can in this day and age. The movies are genre films (Feeling invoking). DO you remember the first time you saw seven, primal fear, titanic - (kind of cheesy now) but at the time the movies gave you a feeling right.
Well all of his movies are like that. This one here is 1 of my top 10's! 5 out of 5. He has over 30 movies made and also 100's of TV episodes. Trust me on this. Its great. Once you get hooked you'll love it as much as me. BUT BEWARE YOU HAVE TO ENJOY FILM> If those action packed rockem sockem's are your only cup of tea then not for you.
Zatoichi #5
I really appreciate Home Vision Entertainments production of the Zatoichi movie series. Each release has been an excellent presentation of Zatoichi. As a Japenese Samurai Movie fan I think that this series of DVD's is the best. The character of Zatoichi is very compelling and each story helps you identify with this Blind Swordsman who is always trying to do good for others. The examples of Japenese culture during this time period is very beautiful and detailed. Shintaro Katsu displays a wide range of emotions as Zatoichi and his display of swordmanship is excellent.
Shintaro Katsu was one of the greatest actors ever
A great entry into the Zatoichi series, there are some awesome fight sequences in this movie and it is very in depth and relfective. All the Zatoichi films I've seen start off without much action, focusing more on building an enviroment that is beleivable and a story that is captivating. Masseur Ichi on the Road satisfies on all levels, truly a testament of what a film should be- an art form that draws the watcher into its carefully laid out story and has him emerge feeling enlightened. With all the hollywood trash being released nowadays all people want is a quick fix of special effects and shallow romance scences. A good story is no longer a necessity and is a nearly forgotten art. The Zatoichi series reminds us what film making is really about.
