A pair of down-on-their-luck swordsmen arrive in a dusty, windblown town, where they become involved in a local clan dispute. One, previously a farmer, longs to become a noble samurai. The other, a former samurai haunted by his past, prefers living anonymously with gangsters. But when both men discover the wrongdoings of the nefarious clan leader, they side with a band of rebels who are under siege at a remote mountain cabin.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A spirited samurai action-comedy where two roguish swordsmen tumble into a clan conflict and find unexpected purpose. The film zips through absurd situations and spectacular set pieces with a wink to the camera, treating its own conventions with affectionate irreverence.
