Review
Fantastic movie. It's one of my favourite ones. Ken Watanabe was fantastic as Katsumuto... I think that was his name. The whole thing is shot in a beautiful place(in the mountains of Japan, I guess) -- it's a beautiful movie.
One of those movies you'd love to watch on a day when you're bored as feck.
8.5/10
