Chi..."Sonny China, in a glorified cameo"<br /><br />Chiba, Ninja, Sonny Chiba.<br /><br /><br />"First and most important, the characters has more layers than just being heroes and bad guys."<br /><br />Yeah.....I agree, there´s alot of character development here.

It was the full 2 ½ hours cut. Highly recommended. Surprisingly good picture and sound quality.Andreas Bengtssonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13821010705429096544noreply@blogger.com
