Review:

Dry and dull, this prohibition-era Yojimbo doesn’t reach its potential. If I hadn’t seen its source material, I wouldn’t have known what was going on. Then again, with all of the dust blowing around on screen, it’s still difficult to keep track of what’s what. Sepia-toned films have more color.
