Love and Honor Reviews
Seattle Times
Jeff Shannon
It's an exquisitely crafted melodrama, moving with stately grace toward an understated yet forceful quest for revenge.
Rincón de cine
Laura Hiros
Tradition, love and intimacy are intertwined in the beautiful Japanese film Love and Honor. [Full review in Spanish]
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
An impeccably made classic Japanese period picture in which a nobility of spirit is tested amid the most beautiful of settings, revealing the harshness and hypocrisy of a feudal society of the utmost formality and rigidity.
Filmcritic.com
Don Willmott
the movie has only one sword fight, and it consists of only three or four swings of the blade, but don't let that dissuade you. You won't be bored.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
Bill White
The film is void of action until a final duel that is staged with a believability that makes the supernatural skill displayed in most blind swordsman films seem preposterous.
Oregonian
Marc Mohan
Gracefully directed, deliberately paced and intentionally free of the action you'd expect from a samurai film, all of which makes its climactic confrontation that much more effective.
Boxoffice Magazine
Wade Major
Love and Honor is a welcome affirmation of Yamada's determination to maintain his historic workload, even while in his 70s.

New York Press
Simon Abrams
Thanks to its focus on internal struggle and domestically confined drama, Love and Honor is the wilting lily of Yamada's trilogy, albeit an exceptionally satisfying romance.

Louis Proyect
Final installment in samurai trilogy that features a blind swordsman in an utterly distinct fashion from the Zatoichi movies--a far more vulnerable and far more believable hero.

Might work as a short story but as a full-length makes for a long, slow round of watch-checking.
