Rurouni Kenshin Also Know as Samurai X is one of my Favorite Anime. I was really surprise to know that there is an Awesome Live Action movie.

I enjoyed watching this movie, cos it had some nice action scenes ,music and talented actors. If they followed the manga's plot more, it'd be magnificent. Well, the scenario wasn't the strong point,cos there were many differences from the anime and the movie ended suddenly. I'd really like to see the fight against Shisio, and generally the JyuuponKatana members fighting against Saito, Kenshin and Sano. One thing i also didn't like, was the fact that they changed Aoshi's Oniwaban group with some other strange looking guys. On the other hand, the (read more)

Highly recommend watching.

Although I never saw the original anime I was equally entertain nonetheless. From my perspective (Die hard Samurai/Ninja fan) I loved it! Couldn't of been better.

Beware Spoiler below:

I disliked how it ended. No offence but the boss fight was unoriginal, but throughout the whole film each fighter had such unique character that it completely cancels out any negative feedback. Honestly it couldn't have been better.
