One of the best that has come from this company. In addition to its being a true story of the life of Marquis Ito, Japan's greatest statesman, showing how he was saved by a little Geisha girl, it enjoys the distinction of being staged and costumed in real Japanese properties, while some of the actors are Japanese, too. The film tells the story graphically and the action is spirited and convincing. It was an ambitious undertaking, but one who follows the different films will undoubtedly admit that this picture is successful and faithfully represents what it purports to do. It is technically good and there is the same life and energy displayed that characterizes all the Kalem films. Altogether it seems to be one of the best things this company has yet done. - The Moving Picture World, December 18, 1909
