The Fifth Entry Is Just Okay

On the road, Kyoshiro Nemuri meets a knife wielding woman and a man with a sword engaged in mortal combat. After the woman promises that Nemuri can have "anything" he wants, our protagonist disarms the man letting the woman kill him, thus avenging her murdered husband. At least that is what the woman claims, the truth turns out to be more complicated. For his reward, Nemuri wants to spend the night with the woman (chivalry is not Nemuri's strongest virtue). Because of this, and an ill timed meeting with a former pirate in a tavern, Nemuri becomes involved in another adventure involving smugglers , corrupt clan leaders, and devious women (this is the entry that should have been titled Sword of Seduction). Of course, Nemuri plays fair with the innocent bystanders in the story but meets villainy with villainy.

After the last entry (the series's high point thus far), I was a little disappointed with Sword of Fire. The story uses tropes that have been better used in previous entries. The villains do not stand out (the villainess is certainly no Princess Kiku). The Gothic touches of the last two entries are missing entirely. Most surprisingly considering the director, the action scenes are only fair. Director Kenji Misumi directed most of the original Lone Wolf and Cub films and a handful of the best Zatoichi movies. Misumi's previous entry in the series, Sword of Adventure, featured a thrilling final fight sequence. Yet, Sword of Fire is just not in their company. It is on par with the first Sleepy Eyes of Death, an okay samurai film, worth watching for fans. Viewers not as enamored with the series can probably skip this entry.
