Description

Cult director Takashi Miike (Ichi the Killer, Audition) delivers a bravado period action film set at the end of Japan’s feudal era. 13 Assassins - a “masterful exercise in cinematic butchery” (New York Post) - is centered around a group of elite samurai who are secretly enlisted to bring down a sadistic lord to prevent him from ascending to the throne and plunging the country into a war torn future.

    I can’t stress enough that this movie is better Than Inglourious Basterds since it’s centered entirely on the Assassins themselves and there’s more action, blood, gore, and graphic violence
  • A great movie

    This is not a kung-fu movie. It's a film about Samurai and justice and honor. Excellent sword fighting and story telling.
  • Amazing film!!

    Loved this film! Not only did it have great action but also great dramatization from all characters. Saw this for the first time and instantly got obsessed with it. This is definitely up there in my top action movies along with The Raid: Redemption and Max Max: Fury Road 💯💯✌️
  • Love Japanese movies

    Don't know if that's racist but their movies are AWESOME!!! What goes on as regular over there, we need a Clive Barker, or a Rob Zombie to do in America!!! The "plaything" is terrifying and pitiful at the same time... And is "normal" in Japanese movies!! They mix horror and action with some slightly over the top bloodiness( is that a word) to make this easily a cult classic along with seven samurai and zatoichi. Love it!!!!!

    Excellent movie stayed very focused on the plot and how the movie built to a great ending. Never lost my attention.
