A quick glimpse at the cast for this film would make any horror fan giddy with glee. The actual movie doesn't live up to those high expectations, but it's far from being all bad. Desi Arnaz Jr. (!) plays an author who makes a crazy $20,000 bet with his publisher that he could write a great novel in only 24 hours. To do so, the publisher gives him the keys to an old abandoned house where he won't be disturbed. Not true. Once he gets there he is interrupted by a multitude of guests including a family which consists of John Carradine, Sheila Keith, Peter Cushing and Vincent Price. They are gathered there in a twisted family reunion to release their brother from the room he's been imprisoned in for forty years. Even Christopher Lee drops by as Corrigan, the man who has just purchased the house. Soon, they realize that the caged brother is loose and out for revenge.
What a great plotline and what a dream cast! This movie should have been a hell of a lot better. It's hard to pinpoint the exact problems with the film, but I would venture to say that the lack of lighting was a major fault. Sure the house has no electricity but I think they took the title of the movie a little too literally. Scenes after scenes are barely visible and the actors' faces are undecipherable. Only the moments in the main dinning hall are well lit. Also, the great actors are given very little to do. Cushing gets a few chuckles as the scared brother but Price, Lee and especially Carradine are somewhat wasted here. Well, at least Price gets the best line of the film: `Please don't interrupt me while I am soliloquizing.' And on the plus side, the story has enough twists and turns throughout to keep one`s interest and the ending, while a bit of a cop-out, manages to surprise.
剧情有点蓄力不够，爆发点比前几作差了太多。（唯一称道是村花的肉蛋脸）
浪客剑心系列的文戏实际上都比较一般，最突出的是武打戏，而在这一部，原著全本最具有情感冲击力的故事中，大友启史终于做出了抉择，武戏减少，文戏增多，处理得也可圈可点，至少不算差。另外作为前传，剑心终于用上了刀刃，刀刀见血，着实爽快。4星。
作为系列最终和追忆篇的真人版，真的太让人失望了。跟人诛篇一样节奏平且散，感情戏毫无感情。情节上删掉了剑心下山前跟比古清十郎的对话，莫名其妙加了些好像很emo的台词，原本探讨个人命运和时代洪流的悲剧感被削弱了很多。
除了觉得几个知名演员演着演着又蹦出来了他们自己以外都挺好的，打斗精彩，文戏也让人泪目，那种被命运摆弄的无奈感真的绝了！
看完唯一感想，还是去回看追忆篇吧~不过最后一段接了第一部的内容，真是恍如隔世，看着明显年轻一截的大家，莫名有些感动~
浪客剑心真人版五部曲收官之作，情感真挚，画面唯美，一个凄美的爱情故事，一部令人满意的收官之作。
1. 尊王攘夷派 - 尊王攘夷就是指擁立天皇對抗外國侵略者，主張把政權從幕府手裡拿回來，劍心所屬的長洲藩就是這一派，另外還有薩摩藩和土佐藩（坂本龍馬！）
没有无理由的战斗：停不下来的人和停不下来的机器的区别
幸好第一部出来后的效果很好，佐藤健真的是神还原，动作场面有不输于动画里头的帅气。
看到最后，有种悲从中来的感觉，佐藤健的剑心怕是再也看不到了
直男癌之刻骨桃花源。。。可怜了那片竹林呗泡沫所覆盖呀
又被砂糖帅到了，没看过漫画，但是整体感觉蛮好的，最后雪地那场拍得太美了，喜欢结尾那段BGM
总的来说,当作一部独立的作品是优秀的,作为真人版勉强合格.
画面是唯美的，但是不知为何有点像舞台剧，文戏的节奏也略慢
良心之作。beautifully shot 整部电影唯美哀伤的氛围 怕是更多要归功于灯光布景和摄影 两人最终一起度过的夜晚那一幕相当有大岛渚的感觉。打戏一如既往的精彩。可惜的是，节奏太慢，说得太少，以至于两人感情的发展有点生硬跳脱。另外确实岁月不饶人啊，佐藤健也不再是少年，其实男神年纪还是挺显出来的，绝对不是能够冒充14岁的年纪了，片尾剪辑第一部的开头，那时还是一脸胶原蛋白的少年感。
没什么新的东西，就是丰富了一下剑心做刽子手的时候的经历。甚至跟巴都没什么互动……根本没有熏的三部零碎电影片段来的丰富，他俩的伪装生活简直是一笔带过，操。唯一让我爆哭的还是巴的日记，呜呜呜。那我在弟弟篇的时候已经哭烂了啊！！！
但同样搞不太懂的是，这个事情是不是真的很有必要去说明白呢？
说实话，我不是太喜欢回忆篇，我可能是少数希望拔刀斋和神谷薰在一起的，雪巴代本身就是一个复杂体，不适合同样复杂的拔刀斋！雪巴代是拔刀斋第一个女人，也应该是他这辈子永远的痛，而雪巴代因后期了解而爱上他，身世不同，目的不同，在那个乱世相爱，或许真的应了当今那句在不合适的时间遇到对的人，经历于此，拔刀斋内心成长，挥刀更无惧，最后两人的结局，也只能以生死才能做结，这或许就是最好的结果，新时代的到来，雪巴代日记中写的保护更多的人，拔刀斋做到了，剑心做到了！
在漫画里就被誉为剧情天花板的追忆篇，真人版也没有让人失望啊。虽然打斗没有前几部多，但出血量多啊。更为关键的是，将源头的故事作为最终章，反而深化了故事内核，无愧于片名的the beginning
今年看过最唯美的爱情片，画面绝美，张弛有度的节奏把握得很好，打斗部分利落畅快，缓慢抒情的部分也一点不觉得拖沓，情感层层递进水到渠成在无声中一起努力守护乱世中平淡而脆弱的幸福。终于看到一个主动去爱人的剑心，看到了剑心的温柔。最后巴在剑心脸上刻下刀痕的一幕感人至深，“就算你手中有刀，我也不会伤害你，我唯一不会伤害的人就是你”
