Netflix Watch Instantly Pick of the Week - 12/20/11
13 Assassins
A modern Japanese remake of a classic Japanese samurai film of the same name, 13 Assassins is an incredible film recalling the old school cinema of Japan's past but in a modern way, and it does so successfully. Directed by filmmaking cult favorite Takashi Miike and featuring a 45-minute climatic battle sequence that never lets up and just gets better as it goes along, 13 Assassins is a great movie, filled with interesting characters embarking on a seemingly impossible mission, with the fate of all of Japan and possibly the world on the line. Good stuff.
