Sword of the Stranger
« on: June 15, 2009, 01:02:25 AM »
I could swear there was a thread about this around here, I did couple of searches but couldn't find it. So I'll start this thread. I'm currently watching this to get some up-beats going. A bunch of people recommended it so I am watching it now ... 1080p of course. =] Who've seen this? It's a movie, just FYI.

Haven't seen a whole lot of anime movies, but I enjoyed this one. It's well animated, decent characters, and the fight scenes were pretty awesome.

Oh, anything looks awesome on Blu-ray. This 1080p video is super smooth and top notch quality.

I couldn't get 1080p to work with hardsubs so I had to settle for the SD version instead :(

It's mindless samurai hack n' slash, but I'm a fan of the genre and it's one of the best. ;D

Nothing is mindless if you compare it to something stupid enough.  Sword is flawlessly animated, but it brings nothing new to the genre that hasn't been done by Ninja Scroll, Zatoichi, Lone Wolf and Cub, Akira Kurosawa, etc.
