Japanese Kenjutsu does not use high flying, extremely "fancy" or "pretty" Katas; most of the Katas across all Kenjutsu schools, involve overhead slashes and stepping techniques. However all that fancy stuff you see in the movies, in a real Kenjutsu duel with bokken, it will get you brained, and with actual swords 400 years ago it could get you killed. Most instructors in Japan though, have control to the point where they can stop their bokken just short of striking someone.
