Reporting on movies I've recently acquired
I'll admit that I wasn't impressed with Blades of Blood when I saw it last year. Like Sunny before it, Blades of Blood displays a weakness in story, especially in the writing, but a bit in the storytelling too, in director I Junik's filmography, with poorly motivated and drawn characters.
However, in one area that both these films did well was the visual and aural direction, and, even more than I Junik's superior small personal tales, these epics are the films that would gain the most from the jump to the Blu Ray format. And for that reason, I picked up a copy of Blades of Blood on the high definition format.
