Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

poe426 SIX ASSASSINS follows the efforts of Mu Jin-jia (Ling Yun) as he attempts to stop the depredations of the Emperor's brother, the dastardly Lord Li Ming. Under the guidance of Minister Ruan, Mu assembles a team of assassins to put an end to Li Ming's aforementioned depredations. Things don't quite work out as Mu and company had planned (for one thing, his wife, Shu-hui, is brutally murdered along the way, the kind of thing that can really cramp your style when you're looking to take down a tyrant) and Minister Ruan is kicked to the curb by royal edict and murdered. With the aid of Lily Li, Mu finally corners and dispenses with Li Ming. As with Akira Kurosawa's epic SEVEN SAMURAI, Mu's men don't fare too well. By film's end, only Lily Li is left standing alongside Mu atop a mountain as they remember the dead (who we see in flashbacks). All in all, worth seeing.

maxim1 This is the Chinese version of Japanese movie Eleven Samurai. Band of six assassins are sent to kill brother of emperor who killed theirs boss who were trying to defend few peasants. Emperor's brother can't be prosecuted for his crime and the whole clan should suffer because of theirs boss offended emperor's relative. One member of clan convince authority to postpone the verdict of informal court for one month and thats the time-frame for assassins kill the emperors brother who is heading to visit emperor in major city. There is not so much fighting scenes and swordsmanship is really poor here. Although it is standard Chinese swordplay movie and the story is good.
