Warrior, The

 

UK / India 2003, 87 minutes
Dir. Asif Kapadia
In Hindi with English subtitles
Rating: [M]
Genres: Foreign Cinema, Action/Adventure / Martial Arts

Topics: Religion.

 

Aroview: Award-winning debut for British born dir. Kapadia follows the quest of a lone swordsman to escape his brutal paymaster in ancient feudal India.

Although a little simplistic in its characterisations and plot, this benefits from the stunning desert and mountain locations and a pictorial mastery. Based on a Japanese folktale, this also creditably bears the influence of Kurosawa in its swirling action scenes.
