Comedy directed by Okamoto Kihachi. Storyline is based on the same novel as "Sanjuro" by Kurosawa Akira. In this chanbara (samurai theme film) piece we can find many cliches from earlier productions. Even if you're not familiar with the genre, for sure this film can be a fun trip. Edit Translation

Reviews
the fights, humors, the absurd circumstances is strong on this one. the points that remind me of the work of seijun suzuki. only talk kihachi okamoto , he has some social commentary implied, in this case ridicule obselete samurai code of duty to a complete laughing stock.
