Warriors of Heaven and Earth in Theatres

 Posted by:
Today Warriors of Heaven and Earth is released in theatres in select cities. No word on how big they plan to release this film so all I can do is hope that this film comes to a theatre near me. In the synopsis for the film they mention Akira Kurosawa so this instantly caught my attention. I know there several Kurosawa fans out there and this looks like a great story.

Set in the ferocious Gobi Desert, the story follows two protagonists, Lieutenant Li (Jiang Wen) and Japanese emissary Lai Xi (Nakai Kiichi) - both first-class warriors and master swordsmen. After decades of service to the Chinese Emperor, Lai Xi longs to return to Japan, but is instead sent to the West to chase wanted criminals. His only passport back to Japan is to capture and execute Lieutenant Li, a renegade soldier wanted for leading a violent mutiny when he refused orders to kill female and child prisoners.
