A whirlwind of blood, dust and psychedelic colour
Tsui Hark's 90s reimagining of the classic Shaw Brothers One-Armed Swordsman series, The Blade is a whirlwind of blood, dust and psychedelic colour. Beneath its rough, brutal appearance lies an uncompromising and technically evolved offering that takes a simple tale of vengeful perseverance and gives it the nihilistic gritty art-house treatment offering new twists on old conventions. Although seemingly frantic, it's never random, Hark brings such meticulous attention to everything it's hard not to be impressed.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
