How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A wild collision of modern military firepower and feudal samurai warfare, where present-day soldiers become accidental conquerors in a historical landscape. It's a high-concept action spectacle that plays the premise entirely straight.
