Ninja Scroll (1993)

Fun enough film. For its time, it probably was quite advanced, but 19 years later, the fingerprints of its days are clear: crowds and swarms loop in their movements, and the story itself is... superficial?

Both story and visuals spoke of their time. The latter was rather like reading a manga at times. The former was simple. This isn't a problem per se if the mood or intensity lifts it up, but with this film it rather failed.

Quite enjoyable, nothing special. Good after 1 glass of red, 2 triple, and another triple.
