Plots(1)
Skilled swordsman and assassin Yang (Jang) goes undercover in in the American badlands after failing in his last assignment. There he makes the acquaintance of a band of carnival workers, including feisty knife thrower Lynne (Bosworth), and town drunk Ron (Rush), both of whom harbour powerful secrets. When Lynne is threatened by a gang led by The Colonel (Danny Huston), Yang must blow his cover and face up to his past as he draws on his expert warrior skills to protect her.

I have a very similar relationship to Asian cinema as I do to Asian cuisine. Some things I got a taste for right away and have repeated several times since (Akira Kurosawa, John Woo, Peking duck breast, kung pao...), some things I tend to be cautious about (comedies, various noodles made in various ways...) and some things I prefer to avoid (anime, sushi and other sea creatures). So the film The Warrior's Way (there's the title again!) was a great unknown. Fortunately, it turned out well, exceedingly. It's not a comedy, but exaggeration abounds, visually it's a beautifully re-styled spectacle almost as colorful as Lemonade Joe, the action scenes are deliberately exaggerated and thanks to that can be imaginative. The protagonist is rather inarticulate, which is a good thing, because the talking is done by his co-stars in the form of the charming Kate Bosworth, the frothy Geoffrey Rush and the slimy Danny Huston. If Italy made a spaghetti western, this could be a noodle western. Great fun, just don't take it seriously.___P.S. Intersonic has pleasantly surprised us this time. On the DVD cover it says that it does not contain Czech subtitles, but they are there.
