    Worth watching
    If you like Twilight Samurai, then this movie would definitely suits you. Almost in the same period, with similar setting and a decent hero that we will love since the beginning, Inemuri Iwane is the movie that you all have been waiting for.

    Swordplays are believable and intense but not too much bloodbath, so no need to worry about too much violence. Romance scenes are tender and touching, emotions are delivered by longing gaze rather than embraces and kisses. We will drawn into our hero's passion for his love one, not by passionate love but with sincere heart.

    Hope for a sequel.

    Definitely 8/10.
