47 Ronin's biggest shortcoming lies in never relinquishing its real world footing so the visual artistry can intrigue on its own merits.

A singular viewing experience: a multi-colored downer fantasy which combines bursts of imagination with a bleak worldview, resulting in something that rarely feels mainstream.

Believe it or not, for all its additions, it's too respectful. You want it to be funnier, crazier.

There's nothing pretty or exciting about this movie (inexplicably, it's in 3-D), even when all anyone's doing is fighting.

47 Ronin is admirably devoted to its material, but it's almost tedious to watch.

Samurai movies may not be everyone's favorite yuletide entertainment, but there's something to be said for Ronin 47.

47 Ronin looks from the outset like a picture that went off without a hitch.

47 Ronin is a film for nobody, made by committee. Like its samurai, it is masterless.

There's no such thing as bad Jack (Nicholson). There's only vintage and current Jack. However, while there is good Keanu, and even great Keanu, there is also... less good Keanu.

This $175million Hollywood reworking of Japan's most celebrated tale of honour and revenge is a mostly plodding affair, notwithstanding some fantastical sword-and-sorcery flourishes.

The pacing is cloddish and tone unaccountably dour.

In spite of its enjoyable, easy-to-exploit aspects, "47 Ronin" is a big budget spectacle hamstrung by its need to be at once flippant and respectful of its honor-driven source material.
