Time Out

However improbably, Kitano pulls it off quite gloriously. Admittedly, this isn't one of his most idiosyncratic, innovative or, indeed, satisfying works, but it's without doubt fast, funny, fabulous to behold.

Beat Takeshi's take on the Zatoichi storyline is very entertaining and continuously original...

This non-traditional samurai movie isn't for kids.

Zatoichi is a mix-and-match crowd-pleaser that shouldn't add up, but delightfully does.

Cinema Signals

Three-frame cuts of the action from multiple camera angles, hose-spurted blood and superimposed wounds do what they can in their primitive way to get you past the problem of improbability.

This is a wonderfully odd movie, proof that an artist can leave his personal stamp on any film, no matter the genre.

Zatoichi is a bloody film that also manages to be beautiful and funny.

For those unfamiliar with such films, Zatoichi might be a little off-putting. But given a chance, the movie can be pretty entertaining.

Orlando Sentinel

This isn't arty violence, just violence, and pretty pedestrian for a samurai picture.

Movie Views

Violent and bloody, carefully choreographed and filled with dry humor, Takeshi Kitano's modern take on the classic Japanese character is a unique vision that's told with confidence.

The Blind Swordsman: Zatoichi begins life as a straight-up samurai movie, evolves into a slapstick comedy and ends as a rousing, tap-dancing musical.
