Reborn is a full fledged action thriller that will be pleasing to the devoted fans of the genre
But for someone like me who likes to have action and drama in a balanced form....it was impressive but still fell on the average line.
BUT at the same time I knew what I was getting and so I did ignore the fact that it kept the story sidelined and since like i said it's a full fledged action movie I watched it with keeping that in mind
The opening scene was unimpressive
But the first half did mix drama and action sequences well and I was really impressed with the action sequences (it was savage and stylish) in the first half especially the fountain pen scene which was
Its the second half that is jam-packed with lengthy action sequences and sidelines the story completely but the action sequences felt more draggy to me now but was still able to maintain its style...the hand-to-hand combat is highly appreciable and the wave movements were intruiging
Most of the actors laid out convincing performances especially and obv the lead Tak Sakaguchi as TOSHIRO AKA THE LEGENDARY "GHOST"
I'd recommend this movie to hardcore action fans especially to those who likes throat slitting,lengthy action sequences and hand-to-hand combats
I won't recommend this to those who will try to find logic in it or to those who..like me... are more interested in action dramas than full-fledged action movie.
