Famed Japanese auteur Takashi Miike, best known for cult classics ""Audition,"" ""Ichi the Killer,"" and ""The City of Lost Souls,"" redefines the spaghetti Western with SUKIYAKI WESTERN DJANGO, a tale written in blood. Two clans, the white, Genji clan, led by Yoshitsune, and the red, Heike clan, led by Kiyomori, battle for a legendary treasure hidden in a desolate mountain town. One day, a lone gunman, burdened with deep emotional scars but blessed with incredible shooting skills, drifts into town. Two clans try to woo the lone gunman to their side, but he has ulterior motives. Dirty tricks, betrayal, desire and love collide as the situation erupts into a final, explosive showdown. Quentin Tarantino also stars.

MPAA Rating: R Rated R for strong violence, including a rape.

Cast: Hideaki Itô, Kôichi Satô and Quentin Tarantino

ମୂଲ୍ୟାଙ୍କନ ଓ ସମୀକ୍ଷା

First off, Takashi Miike is like the Asian Verizon of Quentin Tarentino. If you don't know his work I suggest you start with Ichi the Killer. If you hate it, then move along. If you love it, then welcome to the club. This is one of my of his greats.

One of the most fun movies I've ever seen. Think Samurai Champloo meets all the old western flicks, but none of the hip hop themed stuff.

"Huh?", "wtf?!?" Are my two common running comments while watching this movie. It would have been better if they at least spoke Japanese throughout the movie.
