...different kind of sword? i dont remember much of the plot details at all... but the movie did end with an epic battle with only 2-3 of the swordsmen remaining.the bits and pieces i do remember are things like the main character using a curved saracen sword - and was made fun of by the others in the beginning, and there was a samurai who died in the final battle... sorry if all this is a bit vague, but i'd very much appreciate your help
