Director: Takashi Miike
A group of assassins come together for a suicide mission to kill an evil lord. A Takashi Miike's film.
13 Assassins is a throwback to the samurai movies of the 1950s-60s. No fancy CG work or special effects. Just guys in well choreographed sword fights, mêlées and battles.
Miike's version is slightly different from the original in the ending and atrocities committed by the lord. If you were to compare the original and Miike's, Miike's is lacking in some areas. The pace is faster and does not convey the suspense and gravity of certain scenes. Also black and white is better at portraying the nastiness and desperation of battle.
However if you have never watched the original, Miike movie is good. The 1st part is a bit slow but the 2nd half is battle. Best comparison is to 7 samurai. Body count 212. Desperate men fighting desperately to stay alive. Nothing pretty and no gravity defying swordsmanship. Simple hack, slash and stab. Oh and being a Miike movie, you see gushing blood, decapitations and dismemberment,
I hope it starts a trend where movies of this genre move away from all the CG.
