This is the story of "The Forty-Seven Ronin." Based on historical events in 1701-2, the movie tells the tale of the Asano clan's downfall and the revenge of its former samurai on the perpetrator of the catastrophe.
A samurai film based on the forty-seven ronin legend by Kinji Fukasaku? I'm in. Full of political intrigue while never getting stale, The Fall of Ako Castle is an epic story of vengeance and honor, and as you'd think Fukasaku sprinkles the high stakes drama with his own style of chaotic combat.
Genre: Action/Adventure/Drama
