A son who survives the political slaying of his family teams up with a blind swordsman as they seek vengeance. Pretty cool Korean period movie taking place during the Japanese invasions of the late 1500's. One of the Korean political parties, led by a charismatic and skillful swordsman, seeks to seize control of the government to repel the Japanese invaders. While much of the action is similar to Japanese and Chinese movies, there are subtle differences that I found interesting to note. Much of this film plays out as a drama with the action being fairly brief, brutal and widespread. Something a little different. Pickled cabbage and ginger with rice.
