The line that got Mark sold on The Warrior’s Way.
So what’s the movie itself like?
Here’s his review… Its more concerned with Yang taking mercy on the last survivor of an enemy clan, a baby girl.
Yang very willingly takes on the American way, as is the fashion of these films.
Animated blood and wonky CGI are here, along with many other fixtures fromBlood: The Last VampireandNinja Assassin.
The permanent straight face is what makes some parts unintentionally hilarious.
Huston plays the Colonel like Vernon Wells fromCommandowould have played Jack Torrance inThe Shining.
Its embarrassingly bad, and a low point for Huston.
Theres also little threat from those much mooted ninjas coming to town.
Is there really any jeopardy for Yang, or his young charge?
The saddest thing of all is that a certain line doesnt appear in the finished film.
The best line in the whole film isnt even in the film.
Think of another Western show that takes transgeneric elements from the east, Joss WhedonsFirefly.
You just never knew.
