Once again applied his unique blend of CGI, live action and amazing stunt work, this time to an insane looking period-set martial arts fantasy flick called “Goemon,” which promisingly will appear as a full length Final Fantasy style cinematic. Goemon is a Japanese rebel, thief and folk hero, akin to Robin Hood.

It’s full of the current Japanese film stars such as Yosuke Eguchi, Takao Osawa, and Ryoko Hirosue as well as with overwhelming view of the world and cinematographic beauty.

It certainly does look pretty – and might possibly have a little bit more on plot and narrative than Casshern.
