    the saga of freelance assassin ogami itto and his young son daigoro continues in bloody style. in this episode, daigoro is kidnapped by ninjas and thrown from a burning ship! there's a clan of badass females, a guy with a freddy kruger hand and the final showdown in the sand is...( read more) particularly thrilling. just as much fun as the first, with some touching scenes between father and son as well. i guess it's the woman in me that makes me wanna yell: hey, watch that kid! lol

    The extreme violence is just as pronounced as in the first film in the series and although most of the choreography and visuals don't quite match the original, it does portray the poetry of death and violence a little more.

    Blood and guts fly across the screen and roads are l...( read more)ittered with bodies, as well as body parts. The relationship between father and son is a strange but strong one.

    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!

    One of the best in the series.

    The 2nd in the series finds Itto Ogami and his son battling a bunch of female ninjas and 3 powerful brothers known as the Gods Of Death whilst on a contract. Much more violent and gory than it's predecessor but still thoroughly enjoyable.

    The perfect sequel from the great Itto Ogami's journey, with more action, more duels and more geiser blood, jeje.

    This is a really great saga.

    I have read all 28 volumes of the graphic novel and was blown away each time I read it. If Peter Jackson wanted a story that could rival the intensity of LOTR, then this is definitely one to consider.

    The movie is pure 70's fashion with outlandish special effects and a massive...( read more) amount of squirting/shooting blood. Compared to today's standards, it is hokey and overdone. But the heart of the film is well done.
