I didn't like Baby Cart at the River Styx as much as Sword of Vengeance but it had a damn fine opening and finale. The fights were (like Sword of Vengeance's) incredible but I liked the story slightly less. Still worth checking out though.

The 2nd of the 6 Lone Wolf and Cub movies brings us more gore and spectacular fight scenes. The clan of female ninjas are great and the 3 brothers finale is just plain mesmerising. Expect a few laughs too. Classic!
