Kozure Ôkami: Sanzu no kawa no ubaguruma (1972)
The pinnacle of the baby cart movies
24 February 2004 - 2 out of 7 users found this review helpful.
Watch this film and whole set of baby cart films. River Styx is both stylistic and packed with action. The Gods of Death are perfectly evil and cool. The opening of film sets the pace and style, with lone wolf ninja encounter. The female ninja clan are sexually sadistic, show the highest qualities of female empowerment.
This film is great cinema, well shot, edited and runs smoothly. Highly enjoyable, with a great mise en scene, every frame has meaning and every scene has value.
Once you buy this film you will want all Kenji's films, including the great blind swordsman films.
For action and style River Styx is hard to beat.
