13 Assassins

A riveting, tension-filled, action-packed, fast-paced remake of the 1963 Japanese film in which twelve sword-wielding samurais (Kôji Yakusho, Ikki Sawamura, Hiroki Matsukata, Seiji Rokkaku, Tsuyoshi Ihara, Yûma Ishigaki, Arata Furuta, Masataka Kubota, Sosuke Takaoka, Kôen Kondô, Ikki Namioka, and Megumi Kagurazaka) and a skilled, randy peasant (Takayuki Yamada) set out on a suicide mission to assassinate the dangerous, sadistic, evil, vicious, blood-thirsty brother (Gorô Inagaki) of the shogun and his protective henchmen (Masachika Ichimura, et al.) in May 1844 after they are hired by a high-ranking official (Mikijiro Hira).
