Akira Kurosawa's distinctive vision has a way of inducing almost immediate immersion into his subject matter. From scene one, I could not remove my eyes from the brilliant and subtle intelligence, the lush black and white cinemategraphy, and a story woven so well that one begins to feel as if experiencing the movie from within. This is just one of the many facets of Kurosawa's genius, not to mention the deft handling of the movies' comic line - Toshiro Mifune is a joy and this movie has fine performances all around. This is a dusky gem that deserves repeated viewings.

| One of my favorite samurai movies of all time! This movie is full of action, humor, and beautiful sword play. Much better than Yojimbo. Mifune is awesome as always (I'm a big fan). Definitely check this movie out. I watched it 5 times and won't say No to watching it again :) |
