Recommendation: 47 Ronin

Keanu Reeves is a lovely man; Hiroyuki Sanada needs to be in more movies; 47 Ronin bombed at the box office.

Recommendation: Conan the Adventurer

Apr 20, 2024 J.B. NormanLeave a comment

'And most bizarrely of all, it’s a shockingly faithful adaptation of the source material — probably more so than any other adaptation of Conan we've got.'
