Plot summary

Blind swordsman Zatoichi, jailed briefly, is implored by another prisoner to aid him in proving his innocence of a crime for which he is sentenced to death. Zatoichi is reluctant to get involved, because he knows how often such involvement has led to trouble in the past. But events conspire to thrust him repeatedly into involvement, and gradually he comes to believe in the man's innocence and determines to free him.

Zatoichi and the Doomed Man shows that direcction

Zatoichi and the Doomed Man shows that direcction can greatly improve a film. Beginning with Zatoichi being lashed for illegal gambling, it sets up the story of Ichi trying to clear the name of a fellow cell mate. He crosses paths with a wily Zatoichi impostor and a equally wily female, and ultimately must battle a crime boss in the atmospheric setting of a dockside pier. The baddies use nets, and even a musket in order to try to take down our main character, for a very suspenseful final battle that is a bit different from the usual film climaxes in this series. Even though the story is a little pedestrian, the action and direction is top notch.

Much more humourous and lighter in tone than

Much more humourous and lighter in tone than the previous Zatoichi's Revenge, but still with barrels of action we've come to expect from the feisty masseur. This time he not only has to battle the usual tons of corruption from all around, but also a brat who's impersonating him. The cinematography was especially striking. Strongly recommended.

Another great Ichi film and one that saves

Another great Ichi film and one that saves up it's action and stunningly choreographed battles for the final half of the film. The story is built up and quickly turns to countless bodies falling and Zatoichi laying waste to anyone who opposes him. This is the second shortest Ichi film as it runs at a fast paced and frantic 77 minutes, but man does it pack in the kills in the last half.
