Lord Oda Nobunaga plans to control Japan where rival warlords battle by waging war against several clans. His vassal Araki Murashige stages a rebellion and promptly disappears.
Direction
Kitano at his most unhinged—directing himself as a scheming monkey-man.
Acting
Nishijima's simmering Mitsuhide steals every scene from Nobunaga himself.
Writing
