In the year 3048, the wounded Lord Kagemitsu Daigo proposes a deal to rule the whole world to forty-eight demons in their sealed temple. In return, the demons ask forty-eight parts of the body of his unborn son. When the mutilated baby is born, his mother puts him in a basket in the river flow to save his life. The baby survives and becomes the demon slayer Hyakkimaru that slash demons to retrieve his body parts. During his journey, he meets the female thief Dororo, who was raised as a boy after the death of her parents by the evil Lord Daigo, in a small town and she befriends Hyakkimaru and joins him in his quest seeking revenge against the Daigo's clan.

I was really pained to see such negative comments about this movie.. by someone from japan itself.
We don't have to feed on eve dished out by the Hollywood.. and we certainly don't have to compare our movies to Hollywood. Sure Hollywood produces top quality movies but then eve doesn't have to be Hollywood style...
Having said that I think Dororo is no less entertaining than any action flick. Sure there r glitches here and there but who cares...
I thought Kou Shibasaki as a wicked crook was both hilarious and brilliant .. Her language [ A local dialect of Japanese ? ] increased my fascination for the Japanese language even more..
Dororo for me represents another aspect of the Japanese culture which I have come to love and respect.
I request to the people who know ... to comment, having a broader perspective in mind ... because for many, this place is the primary contact for information on movies..
Can't wait to for Part 2 & 3 ...
