Who will emerge as the victor? Will the continuing saga to gain dominion over a territory end in bloodshed?
In a descriptive angle, the movie personified a chimerical purpose; but the best thing about this motion picture was the capability of the characters to combat mercenaries especially by Azumi, who remained graceful and gorgeous as she killed dozens of pluggers. It is an unsolicited advice to the viewers to see the climax of this flick and judge for themselves how the antagonist was able to succeed on taking about 200 dark horses in the movie, accompanied by gory, slash fest
This was an evident proof that “gender” is not an issue if we want to help other people against treacherous and animalistic personas. Furthermore, Azumi was an entertaining movie; with a touch of artistic humanism, Artistic humanism is the creative use of human expression in articulating the myriad aspects of human conditions and experiences. Speaking of its plot,it can be attributed to as one wrapped in a box of promises, yet, it delivered the goods. To prove, though Azumi was a computer generated film,. Kitamura was able to keep the embellishments of the film and with the right timing; suddenly it exploded with thrill and excitement to the delight of the viewers. Moreover, the camera works were also fascinating as it made a 360 degree loops around Azumi and her combatant before the decisive moment took place.
