So, 'The King and His Vassal 2 - The Great Riot of Edo' is one of those films that defies easy categorization, blending action, comedy, and drama in a way that feels both chaotic and intentional. Kazuo Mori directs with a loose hand, pulling you into a world where the fish market’s relocation sparks all sorts of trouble. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it adds to the overall atmosphere; you never quite know where things will go next. The performances, particularly from Jun Inoue and Eijiro Tono, are a mix of earnestness and humor that really grip you. It's a fascinating look at Edo period politics layered with practical effects that feel refreshingly raw. Definitely worth discussing among collectors.
Interesting blend of genres that keeps you on your toes. · The practical effects add a gritty charm to the storytelling. · Not your typical period piece; has a distinct flavor.
