OT - "The Warrior"

[tug]

Just wondering if anyone else here has seen it.

It touts "samurai style action sequences", but there isn't much to be had.

Incidentally, there isn't much fighting at all past the first 30mins. Everything else is zen.

Let me know what you think.

I put up a thread for this when it came out but didn't want to spend $22.99 on it. What would you give it on a scale of 1-10?

Hard to say. I guess I should see it again, but I was a little disappointed and at the same time elated, that is why I was asking for opinions.

I'm on the fence about it. Not sure if it's something I feel I should have in my library, but also not sure if it has any redeeming qualities.

All that being said, I did enjoy it, and I truly indentify with the downtrodden (which is what I imagine the director was going for), but ultimate perception is still left to the viewer.

IMO - bottom line, I would give it a 5, just to be fair. It is what it is.

Is the action good?

Is it a good story?

Do you feel for the characters?

Yes, yes and yes, but I guess I was expecting something different.

Just hoping some of the others would sound off...
