Customer Rating:
Summary: This is an action movie with a little bit of a twist.
Comment: The plot is a nice idea: blind martial artist. The writers, and especially Rutger Hauer, have fun with it, and the fun comes right across :-)
Customer Rating:
Summary: Just a classic Hauer film!!
Comment: He was perfect for this part and then to have Shô Kosugi as the hired gun at the end......that's right!!!!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Poor
Comment: This is really rather poor. Rutger Hauer does a pretty good blind man but his magical sword powers are way over the top. What this reminded me of was the Clint Eastwood "Every way..." films where Clint continually humilates and beats the living daylights our of a gang of hells angels. The trouble is those films weren't taking themselves very seriously. I got the impression that this was.
There are a few a nice humerous exchanges between Hauer and the young lad, but overall this was a disappointment. I strongly recommend renting first. If you must buy, only buy if its very cheap.

Summary: Real fun.
Comment: This is one of my favorite Rutger Hauer movies! Both of my sons liked it too! Rutger puts in a good performance. This is really a b-grade movie, but nicely done, even if some of the action scenes are a little over the top. The interaction between Hauer's character and the boy in the movie is actually quite good. Grab a bowl of popcorn, kick back and enjoy!

Summary: This Is One You'll Remember
Comment: Some movies stick in your memory, regardless of your critique of dialog, editing, etc. For me, this is one of those films. Maybe it's the idea of a man blinded after a life of sight, who triumphs over himself and the rest of the world. It an "inside" movie, with lots of "outside" action -- a certain kind of person will be very affected by it -- and most others will enjoy it anyway!
