A turning point in the series
10 December 2018 | by phanthinga – See all my reviews

I enjoyed each Lone Wolf and Cub installment the same way I enjoyed every mindless action flick but Baby Cart in Peril the fourth installment of the series stand out the most for me when this one got a good storyline disguise in a genetic plot.At first it still the usual Itto Ogami an assassin for hire with his toddler Daigoro travel across Japan eliminate ninja and samurai from their rival but this time the movie show the real reason why Itto got to the point of he is right now with a lot of emotions.Although his undisputed skill in swordsmanship and the cunning nature of a lone wolf help him through most of the fight in this movie I still think Itto will die in this movie if I don't know after this there will be two more sequels because Baby Cart in Peril got the hardest final battle he had ever encountered so far
