Two clans, the white, Genji clan, led by Yoshitsune, and the red, Heike clan, led by Kiyomori, battle for a legendary treasure hidden in a desolate mountain town. One day, a lone gunman, burdened with deep emotional scars but blessed with incredible shooting skills, drifts into town. Two clans try to woo the lone gunman to their side, but he has ulterior motives. Dirty tricks, betrayal, desire and love collide as the situation erupts into a final, explosive showdown.

Now that is a joke! The Japanese have made a "spaghetti western" in which they appropriate what is theirs, i.e., all the basic building blocks of similar stories, by which the world inspired (mainly) Akira Kurosawa, they mixed it with something else, and they didn't bother with a meaningful story... And it worked. I had a great time with it. Great color stylization, choreography of shootouts, funny gore (the cross), samurai sword vs. colt duel... Entertainment that gets four pure stars.

So this time I was really disappointed with what I saw. As much as I love Miike's stylization, it didn't fit at all for a western. I wouldn't mind a western with Japanese elements, but this is really tacky in which even the story gets lost. However, Tarantino pleased in the puppet-like sets. Otherwise, it remains more of a disappointment.
