About

You’ll likely enjoy 47 Ronin if you want big, moody samurai revenge with frequent action and striking visuals, plus some fantasy elements; Not for you if you prefer deeper cultural nuance over CGI monsters, or if you disliked Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny or King Arthur: Legend of the Sword.

Pros: entertaining action; vivid visuals; decent fantasy | Cons: dragging pacing; weak character attachment; mixed reviews
