Could it be that I have seen too many Japanese movies about a girl with a sword killing people. I liked Onechanbara, Zombie Self Defense Force, and quite a few others, but the this live action remake of the previous animated film bored me. The lead character, Saya, is like Marvel Comics’ character Blade, a half-human half-vampire who kills blood suckers, but she does it in a school uniform with only a sword. It’s all very dull with unoriginal fight scenes and unconvincing CGI.
It probably doesn’t help that too many non-Japanese people were involved in the production.
