Hara-Kiri: Death of a Samurai (2011)

Found this on my new release wall of my local Family Video...

Recommended for those who appreciate somewhat Kurosawa-esque  elements of a "samurai movie" but don't fall for the cover. This is a serious film.  The box cover writeup didn't do it justice... but they got me to pick it up.
 
An involving tale of human struggle.   I was pleasantly surprised at where they took the story. On the downside I found some of the characters were a bit thin.

Give it a try, there is nothing much out there.

Haven't watched it, but it's a remake of Masaki Kobayashi's Harakiri. 

If you enjoyed Hara-Kiri: Death of a Samurai, watch 13 Assassins. Produced by the same guys.

Thanks for the heads up   :thumb:
