47 Ronin, Keanu Reeves is still not good at acting

47 Ronin is apparently an ancient Japanese tale that I'm going to completely ruin for everyone starting now. Keanu Reeves is a "half-breed" who is saved by Japanese royalty of some kind and adopted in the sense that he lives with them, but is far from family for most of them. Everything gets out of control when another "royalty" family visits with a witch. Keanu's "King" is forced into attempting to kill the other "King" by the witch, he fails, and then chooses suicide (hiri-kiri) to save his families honor. The 47 samurai are forced into exhile, hence becoming "Ronin's". The band gets back together to kill the other "King" and gain justice. Special effects are pretty good actually, but the movie really has no feeling or decent acting, so that gets painful and old quickly. The real kick in the balls is after killing the other King and the witch, they all earn the honor of getting to commit suicide as Samurai. They "win", but then all commit group suicide, so that's kind of a downer, but at that point I cared so little I thought it was fitting because there can't be sequels now. Bottom Line: 3.1 out of 10 for the special effects. Everything else is crap.
