The 47 Ronin in Debt

  • The money trail of the infamous 47

    To the west, 47 ronin is a romanticized tale of loyal ronin who avenge their lord knowing it will cost them their lives regardless of their success. That's also what everyone on the streets of Tokyo expected out of them-it's not like it was a big secret, and their target wasn't the most popular man. What is less obvious is that they took quite a while to carry it out, and that the undertaking was bankruptingly expensive. This fresh look at this old tale which has been retold every which way will not satisfy peasantly needs to see wrongs righted in swashbuckling action. It's also about 47 and many more men, so don't hold your breath to see the few outstanding women to take over the show. Its comedy derives from the single factor that honor loving proud samurais rarely had a clue about finances until their wallets bit them in the butt. You've already seen the vengeance play out in some other iteration of this event, this is not a possible tale of what happened, but how it was made possible, and an entertaining one at that, as long as you're not stuck waiting for swords to clash and heads to roll.

  • Free the GMO

    For the longest time, I've avoided this movie with a stick picturing a Free Willy Disney flick. However an automated preview abounding with Snowpiercer-like eccentricity made me rethink venturing into it. Marketing this movie to kids is a sure plan for failure with the violent action and cruelty towards animals. The realistic creature design like in The Host, might leave something to be desired, but doesn't really get in the way of the movie. Seeing Glen from the Walking Dead kicking around is also an added bonus.
