5/10
Some impressive action sequences aside, Revolver Lily is a mostly dull war drama that struggles to stand out in a genre that has plenty of notable entries. Go to Full Review

3.5/5.0
As a movie, Revolver Lily moves just as briskly as Yuri Ozone herself takes stealthy, decisive action. It resembles the train that kicked the action off: fast-moving, with a destination clearly in mind. Go to Full Review

There's a lot of convoluted exposition in between the action sequences in this Japanese period thriller, but that action is mostly strong enough to push past the narrative lulls. Go to Full Review

As such, “Revolver Lily” emerges as a mixed bag, a film that definitely deserves a watch for its set pieces, visuals and action scenes, but will disappoint anyone who looks beyond that Go to Full Review

Marc Z @TKDLife Jan 2 This is the latest release from WellGoUSA and it is a well done action thriller. When Japanese filmmakers get it right their films are unmatched.   It is a terrific period action piece and worth watching. The story is set in post WW I Japan.  It centers around a semi-retired female Assassin, played by Ayase Haruka.  She is the heart of the movie.  Her subtle, yet complex performance, is top notch.  It is rare to have a character with such composure, and with only glimpses of her back story, command such a central role.  She is masterful here. The cast is terrific. Hamura Jinsei gets it.  He is a young actor with great promise.  He plays his role maturely and is one of the best young actors I have seen. Hasegawa Hiroki also shines here in a pivotal role. The action scenes are great.  The gun play is paramount in this action film and well done.  The martial arts has a, surprisingly, Chinese, influence; however, these scenes were well choreographed. The film has some strong messaging. See more Dick C 03/05/2024 It's a good movie, with the great endings... See more Read all reviews
