Preview: Reclaiming the Blade (2008)

• Poster: C-

Review:

Well, there's no question this poster is about the documentary. However, it's a rather poorly constructed poster that says very little about the history or importance of the sword. And even if it didn't, it's not exactly an inviting poster.

• Trailer: C+

Review:

I'm sure there's something more interesting to this documentary than is evident in this trailer, but I can't imagine what it would be. A history of the sword seems hard to pin down according to what we see in it, so how much fun could it be?

Oscar Prospects:

This isn't your "Oscar-nominated" kind of documentary.

Release Date:

• December 15, 2008
