I only write this (my first review on IMDb) because I totally disagree with the other two reviews here. This is an enjoyable movie about a (literally) bastard's (HAN Pil-joo) quest to kill his fathers murderer (LEE Mong-Hak). Pil-joo teams up with the Korean version of Zatoichi and sets out on his quest that will lead him to Mong-Haks courtesan girlfriend, and she'll team up as well. I really enjoyed this Korean take on Zatoichi, the scenery is beautiful and the props and costumes are very well made and all though some of the fighting scenes are quite cheesy the over all impression quite positive. The things I enjoyed most in this movie was the Zatoichi character and many very beautiful settings and I would recommend you to watch as well if you get the chance.
