TORNADO is the story of a Japanese woman in 19th century England. Traveling with her father, a former samurai turned puppeteer, she is chased by a bad on robbers who wants the gold she is carrying.
This is a good little historical action drama that works
best because it is set in an unfamiliar world. Being set in England allows
there to be certain suspense since we no longer can be certain how it will play out.
Beyond the setting change the film is a well done, if
familiar tale of a fight for survival and revenge. We’ve seen this before, but
at the same time not always as well done as this. I had a good time.
This is a sweet little diversion.
