Elements of Madness

If watching someone be a badass is your thing while they cut down fools who dare underestimate them, then EYE FOR AN EYE is going to scratch that itch, plain and simple. It delivers no more or less than it promises ... .

Rated: 3/5

Brilliant performances and visual style. Comparable to the best Zatoichi movies. Deserves an international release.

I went in thinking its a rip-off of Zaitochi but this is shot in a different style and the action scenes are very slick without overdone wire-fu. Recommended!
