There was a time when I was only into watching samurai movies, and well, of course I watched Sword of the Stranger. I think that even though the plot may be generic, it has a good main character and very good fights. From my point of view the rating you give it is more than fair.
Cheers!
Yeah, the main character was really good. Although the plot may be a little bit used, its amazing swordfights really compensate for it. It's totally worth a fair rating since I really enjoyed its action scenes.
By the way, thanks for stopping by, @musicandreview. Cheers also!
