If you like swordplay, excessive violence, wry humour, high-octane, well choreographed action sequences with a decent dose of the honour code simultaneously served up with a blatant disregard for it, then you will love 13 Assassins. Referencing everyone and everything from Kurosawa to Tarantino, Miike has created one of the most exhilarating onscreen spectacles to hit cinemas for years. An absolute must see for any self-proclaimed Samurai fan. TJ
A group of assassins come together for a suicide mission to kill an evil lord.
