Seven Samurai

I like long movies, but this was one of the few where I felt exhausted throughout. However, the direction and acting are so compelling that you cannot help but to feel inspired by its efforts.

Holds up surprisingly well!

The more I think about, the more I realize that this movie is perfect.

Akira Kurosawa's masterpiece. He influent many of action movies just by this. The cinematography, the action, and the acting was just great. Truly masterpiece!

A true classic, amazing

This is the greatest movie ever made.

One of several Great Samurai films. Funny Kurosawa went over budget several times. Was supposed to be 6 samurai but it looked boring so they added mifune's character as comic relief letting him runaway with improv overacting lol. One of the 1st movie to use telephoto lens. American westerns copied this to make the magnificent 7. Pixar for bugs life. Also a space movie, battle beyond the stars, the mandalorian s.1 ep4, Seven warriors, 7 swords, China gate. The hidden fortress is also great ( basis for star war new hope). Yojimbi and sanjuro remade into Eastwood spaghetti westerns. I still prefer Lone wolf n cub series cuz of the ninjas. Also the miyamoto musashi trilogy. Shadow hunters and demon spies (more Shinobi).

THE BEST SAMURAI FILM/MOVIE EVER MADE AFTER HARAKIRI WHICH IS THE BEST IN MY OPINION

An absolute legend. 3 1/2 hours but they go fast. A chance to see this on a big screen is not to be missed.

The greatest Japanese film in history! Today I concluded my viewing of some of the greatest works of Japanese cinema, and I concluded by re-watching this masterpiece by Akira Kurosawa, which I consider to be the greatest Japanese work, the greatest samurai film in history, and the best Kurosawa film. I watched this film last year and it was a wonderful experience, but after re-watching and enjoying the film, I felt its greatness and beauty, and I must have I pay tribute to the role of the legend Toshiro Mifune as Kikuchio, in which he embodied a fun but sad character and gave us the most beautiful sacrifices at the end of the film. In fact, all the acting crew excelled in their roles and each character had its own aesthetics. The film was a mixture of war, battles, poverty, wisdom, planning, romance, courage and comedy, which Toshiro Mifune created. In general, the movie was legendary and one of the best movies in history, and the closing scene was perfect and what a great masterpiece
