This movie was delightful to watch. The combative scenes were very well done. Five stars for that one gentlemen.

the beginning reminds me total war shogun 2, eventhough the movie is set in china, not japan....do you know of how similar the warfare was in those two regions. Did armies in china also have ninja-like and shogun-like armies

[aumurg]

@lhamlett Chine and Japan are neighbour countries. and it is possible that somestaff are similar eachother

Such as , some figure are so similar in both kung fu and karate (and other martial art types), too.

Also they both use chopstiks, :P..... I mean there are sure some cultural interactions eachother.

Mainland Influences on the Early Ninja:

By the year 850, the Tang Dynasty in China was in decline. It would fall in 907, plunging China into 50 years of chaos; the collapse prompted some Tang generals to escape over the sea to Japan.

These commanders brought new battle tactics and philosophies of war with them.

Chinese monks also began to arrive in Japan in the 1020s, bringing new medicines and fighting philosophies of their own. Many of the ideas originated in India, and made their way across Tibet and China before turning up in Japan.

The monks taught their methods to Japan's warrior-monks, or yamabushi, as well as to members of the first ninja clans.
