Versus

This is an awesome modern-day Japanese action flick. The movie opens with two escaped convicts running through the woods to go meet their get-away people. People run their mouths and people get shot, then they come back from the dead. Apparently the land is cursed and brings people back to life (The Forest of Resurrection, to be exact). Well, these bad guys have been dumping bodies here for years, so they all come back to life at the same time. Like typical Japanese flicks, the plot really isn't about what you think it's about. It's actually about two immortals fighting to take over the world. The film is decent, but again, it's no Azumi – which is the movie I judge all action flicks on for the past few years. It's got tons of cool blood sprays and special effects and sweet camera work during the fighting scenes. If you like Japanese action flicks, check it out. It's cool, but it won't change your life.
