Audience Member The two stars are really just for getting to see Aya Ueto swing a sword again. I loved the first, but this one is contrived and soulless. At least the action is still fun. You may be better off just forwarding to the fight scenes. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Basically a rehash of the first film, possibly bloodier. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member "AZUMI, THE FEMALE ASSASSIN VOLUME 2" - 'Azumi 2: Death or Love' is the 2005 sequel of the successful action film 'Azumi' from 2003. The story continues where the first movie had ended: the assassins have one warlord left on their death list. Again brutal katana-fights and colorful characters steal the show. This time some romance is added. With Aya Ueto returning as heroine Azumi and Chiaki Kuriyama (Kill Bill, Battle Royale) as ninja Kozue. An epic conclusion of a great Japanese franchise. With Nagamasa Asano and Kiyomasa Kato dead, the two remaining assassins, Azumi (Ueto) and Nagara, continue their quest to eliminate the third and final warlord, Masayuki Sanada. On their way they are guided by the playful ninja Kozue (Kuriyama) and meet a gang of thieves led by Ginkaku, a young man that resembles Azumi's deceased love-intrest Nachi. In the meantime, Kato's general Kabei has joined forces with Sanada, warning him about the two assassins. But Sanada has gathered his best forces: an army of heavily armed mercenaries, a pack of samurai fighters, the giant Roppa, the poisonous ninja Tsuchigumo and Sanada's concubine Kunio. Will Azumi and Nagara succeed in their mission? Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member naaaah.. it feels like a sequel.
