ZATOICHI ON THE ROAD (1963)

Zatoichi the Blind Swordsman, Vol. 5 - On the RoadEntertaining? VERY MUCH SO!! This is volume 5 of the original THE BLIND SWORDSMAN: ZATOICHI series and makes me want to go rent the other volumes and definitely catch the remake that's coming out later this year starring Beat Takeshi.
Technically any good? Definitely. This film has all the character and story development you'd expect from a Kurosawa film. It's just damn-good stuff!
How did I feel as the credits rolled? Immensely satisfied. I seriously do want to check out the rest of the originals ZATOICHI series.
Final Rating? GSN (You won't be disappointed if you like samurai films!)
