anime going to live action allways exciting the anime fans.

"Rurouni Kenshin Live-Action " is not a bad action movie as itself, but" Rurouni Kenshin" anime fan will be kinda disapointed to my opinion.

It is difficult to make an anime into a live-action movie, but I was impressed but how it was done except for the cliche dialogues that should have been left out. The acting was so and so, it looked forced rather than natural. I enjoyed it, but it wasn't that great. The plot is good yet kinda cheesy at times.
I dunno how to explain, but I think this movie is simple flat. Some story wrap up to one,the romance should have more spice and for action movie its not that awesome, the effect is just so-so. Well if you're not too fanatic with the original anime, this movie is worth it, I know it's not easy to make a live movie based on anime.
