Bunraku

Duartion: 1 hr. 58 min.
Directed By: Guy Moshe
Josh Hartnett, Woody Harrelson, Gackt, Kevin Mckidd, Jordi Molla
A mysterious drifter (Josh Hartnett) and an ardent young Japanese warrior Yoshi (Gackt) both arrive in a town that has been terrorized by outrageous and virulent criminals. Each is obsessed with his separate mission, and guided by the wisdom of The Bartender (Woody Harrelson) at the Horseless Horseman Saloon, the two eventually join forces to bring down the corrupt and contemptuous reign of Nicola (Ron Perlman), the awesomely evil "woodcutter" and his lady Alexandra (Demi Moore), a femme fatale with a secret past. This classic tale is re-vitalized and re-imagined in an entirely fresh visual context, set in a unique world that mixes skewed reality with shadow-play fantasy, a place where even the landscape can betray you. -- (C) Picturesque Films

Bunraku admirably strives for visual panache, but the staging, acting, and effects are dismal with a complete lack of excitement.
