Review of Azumi (2003) by Moviestar M — 09 Mar 2007

[/size][/font][font=Georgia][size=2]It took me about fifteen minutes to get into Azumi; around the time I stopped trying to figure out the mood. You've got scenes of tragedy, comedy, action, and romance... all packed together in any random ten minutes of the movie. It's sorta disorienting.

[/size][/font] [font=Georgia][size=2][size=2] However, if you can get past that, there's a decent martial arts b-movie in there. Wacky and engaging characters, cheesy-but-passable fighting, good amount of blood n' gore. You could definitely do worse.[/size].

[/size][/font] [size=2][font=Book Antiqua][size=3][font=Georgia][size=2] The only reason I give this a four instead of a five or a six is because of the muddled lack-of-focus feeling Azumi left me with.[/size][/font].
