Crying Freeman (1995)

The Freeman is a Chinese assassin that exists in myth and legend, called upon only when needed. If you're unlucky enough to see him in action, then you too must die. That's his code. That's his curse.
CF is one of my guilty pleasures. I adore every minute of it. It's based on a Japanese comic book that was also adapted into a successful anime.
The acting is just above average, not helped at times by the last-minute ADR.
The story drifts into mystical bullshit halfway through.
The ending is both wonderful and face-palm bad. And yet, it's so much guilty fun. Viewed as a live action manga/anime, it's a huge success.
