Samurai Samanosuke is attacked by when carrying out a mission for his clan, searching for a spy.  His loses an eye and and an arm and is left for dead. He recovers and takes a new identity as Tange Sazen, he acquires a stolen urn and lives among thieves, while everybody seems to be coming after the urn.
A fantastic samurai film.  Lots of sword slashing, a very interesting protagonist, and good directing make this a very entertaining film.

Rating Scale Explanation

The rating scale is simple. 1 is the worst 10 is the best and 5 is mediocre. 5.5 or greater is a movie that I at least find enjoyable. You could also think of 5 as a zero and 1 as a negative 5. I feel like that sounds even more convoluted.
