The action scenes were great with only three or four moves that were truly impossible and obviously wire work. When Kenshin is sitting down, you better believe his sword is on his right side and he sheathes his sword correctly.

I would like to point out that the director paid attention to details many modern movie makers are forgetting! From what I could tell, everyone's sword etiquette was taken seriously. I won't summarize the movie any farther but the first two scenes do a wonderful job setting up the movie. When we come upon the Kenshin gumi they are watching Kabuki in Asakasa (the historical center of kabuki) and boy is it funny! This I like for the comedy of the scene. This scene also sets up one of the reasons I really like the series: The action, and the entire movie really, are very reminiscent of old Japanese samurai movies. You are left with NO doubts about exactly who the big bad is.
The movie opens in a glorious, if a bit cliche, horror movie like set with Hajime leading his troop of soldiers into what is revealed to be Shishio's self designed version of hell. The movie covers from the start of the Kyoto arc until the journey to Edo. Well, I could understand it in my head a lot more than the first one but the point remains that there were no English subtitles. I also can’t get too specific anyways as I only understood the movie in my heart, not my head. Any spoilers would only be in referencing to the manga and will be in their own section. or torture you, depending on how you wish to take it. Since I know many of you are anxious to see this movie I thought I would share my feelings on the movie to whet your appetites for this amazing movie. Sadly, work got in the way so I went the next day. Since I live in Japan I had the privilege to be able to watch this movie on opening day. This review may contain spoilers Hello, I’m Han, on old member popping up for a visit.
