To say this is weird is an understatement. First off, apparently all Samurai are gay. Yes there is a history of some homosexuality but I don't remember it being this rampant or flagrant. Once again, this comes across as woke pandering. Beyond that its story seems a bit convoluted. Certainly, it takes the cruelty aspect and callousness a little too far. For example, one villager is glad his wife, little daughter and father were murdered. Which rather begs the question of what this film is trying to say about the nuclear family. Nothing good by the sounds of it. In summary, I don't rate this one. It comes across as pushing an agenda, one many of us have had a guts full of.
