Review of 47 Ronin (1994) by Keith R — 03 Jan 2016
From ancient Japan's most enduring tale, a telling of the tale that mixed history with fantasy. Critics have called this a "dull fantasy adventure." Like Van Helsing before it, I disagree BIG TIME.
The story of The 47 Ronin is a legend of honour not known by many; I only found out about from an episode of BELIEVE IT OR NOT. The story of the event, if it had been done with complete historic accuracy, would have indeed made for a dull story.
The inclusion of fantasy and Japanese Mythology into the story made it captivating and stirring. I really enjoyed this movie.
