Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.

Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Uriah43 Having witnessed the death of her father at the hands of a samurai by the name of "Hyo-e Kataguri" (Shigeru Kanai) a geisha named "Kotomi Yamabe" (Minami Tsukui) is determined to extract revenge upon him. As is so happens, although she has been trained in the arts of a geisha, when she was young she was also taught by her father the skills necessary for a samurai as well and armed with her father's katana she sets off on her quest to kill Hyo-e Kataguri. Unfortunately, once she finds him he manages to slip away and--alert to the knowledge that she is after him--he puts several obstacles in the form of ninjas, samurai and wizards to kill her before she can track him down again. To make matters even more complicated, there is a secret that she is unaware of and this also has an important impact upon her mission as well. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was an okay samurai film which basically consisted of plenty of swordplay and martial arts. So those who enjoy action for the sake of action should have few problems enjoying this movie. On the flip side, however, the plot was rather minimal so viewers shouldn't expect much depth or intricacy. It's an action movie from start to finish. Nothing more and nothing less. All things considered then I rate it as about average.

BA_Harrison The title pretty much says it all: pretty geisha Kotomi (Minami Tsukui) seeks revenge for the murder of her father, but to get to the man responsible for his death she must first defeat a series of foes in mortal combat. That's about it for plot, the film consisting of wall to wall fighting between the young woman and a variety of opponents (including a ronin, several ninjas, a monk, a magic man and his dream demons, and a bow-and-arrow toting 'Indian' woman) before she finally gets to even the score with her dad's killer.Geisha Assassin is a low budget effort (from an undeniably enthusiastic group of film-makers) and has the distinctive look of having been shot on HD video rather than film; however, considering the relatively low production quality, the result is technically and visually impressive, with smart editing, considered direction, stylish lighting and cool choreography.And yet, despite all of these positive points, the film fails to be a wholly satisfying experience, the slight plot failing to fully engage the viewer, the action scenes generating very little in the way of genuine excitement thanks to a frustrating sameness of fighting styles and locales, and the finale proving to be the dullest part of the whole affair rather than the highlight. With a tad more fun injected into proceedings—some excessive gore, perhaps, or even more outrageous comic-book-style adversaries—this might have been a hugely enjoyable piece of action cinema. Instead, it's passable entertainment for the duration, but unlikely to make a lasting impression.5.5 out of 10, rounded up to 6 for IMDb.

isthisbetterb I need to preface this by saying i love cheesy kung fu movies especially from back in the day (Shaolin vs. Manchu is a classic). I also wasn't expecting a good plot, acting, script, filming or effects, but this is just ridiculous. I have never seen a worse movie in my life (check my movies I've seen a lot)Everything is awful and the fight scenes just don't make sense. You can have someone in an arm bar for example and then there's a quick cut scene and the other person is 30 meters away from them. Its just unenjoyable. Most great cheesy kung fu movies were great because of the era they were created in. The movie fan has changed a lot and this just doesn't work. The fight scenes just don't make sense. Watch until about 25 min in and see if im wrong. You want to watch a movie for fighting where the story is secondary? Watch any Tony Jaa film or go to best buy and pick up a 10 pack of old kung fu flicks for 30 bucks. All copies of this should be burned. oh yeah and this is the only movie I've given a 1 to

shescheating The film's plot is very simple and old that's you can tell the end at the first you saw it.A young girl revenge to a man not know the reason and no one really care about it,the action began,not surprisingly the young girl defeated very enemy blocks on her way which doesn't make sense,the girl fights two bodyguard,four ninjas,a monk,she was stabbed by a female ninja on the shoulder that makes a lot of act is physically impossible to be done,but she did and killed them all, fake.the ninjas fly to the sky ,do the posture stuff with his partners which can make you laugh or bore,fake.The girl fights a monk which is larger and stronger on size and she still defeated him by her strength ,fake.After that I fell asleep and never wake up until next morning.So any positive about this film?It's can make you a good sleep!Especially on Sunday evening ,you need it!So it's a typical orient fake action movie you may have watched for thousand times. anyone think this is good because they never see any film in this categories,so I suggest you go watching Samurai X: Trust and Betrayal,which is the masterpiece in every sense of the world.
