I've always liked martial arts movies and was excited to hear that there was a movie made about Judo. I bought the movie online and when I finally received it, I watched it right away. I have to tell you, this is not your typical martial arts movie where the good guy just beats up on all the bad guys. This movie has deep characters, all with different motives and ambitions. Although the martial arts sequences are not that long, I think that they were filmed nicely (Although it is a little dark to see sometimes). The parts where Tony is training with Sze-to made me remember my training when I was younger, and that really got to me. After finishing this movie, I had a new sense of renewed vigor and excitement. I immediately went back to all my Judo training books and began practicing again. I haven't felt this good in years, and I even arranged for a trip to Japan to observe Judo in it's homeland.
I'm not saying that this movie will have the same effect on you, but if you're a martial artist, you just may appreciate what this movie has to offer. If you are not, I think you can still see the message trying to be portrayed in the film - "You can do anything you want in your life, but it's all up to you"
