American trailers suck: "one man, challenging an empire", talking about heros and justice, simplifying for dumb main audience..not really what the film is about...
Zatoichi is not a samurai?! he's a messuer and lives by the Yakuza code, like the original Ichi. he trained to use a sword to show that just because he's blind doen't mean he's useless. before learning the way of the sword he was just an average citizen of Japan. he gave up being a Yakuza when he saw how much their kind didn't care about the lives of others yet he used their code to survive from all the constant attacks from other swordsmen.
This guy can't pronounce for shit.

I love the other Zatoichi, the one they show on IFC's "Saturday Morning Samurai Cinema." But this version, IMHO, is the very best.
