MOST AWESOME MOVIE EVER!
Can words explain it? I do not know! F*&%ing epic! This is my 4th Kurosawa film I have watched. My first was Seven Samurai at 18 (left dissapointed, maybe I was too young), second being Ran (truly great but, didn't really care for it), third was Rashomon (F'ing amazing cinematography :self-realization- Kurosawa is amazing), and finally I have seen this, and I am at a loss for words. It's dramatic at times, action-filled, and sometimes downright hysterical thanks to the antics of Tahei and Matakishi...i mean they kept me chuckling the entire time. The first hour WAS NOT SLOW. Something about this film just captivated and kept me there for the entire time, despite not putting it in until 1 am, and lasting until 3:20, with no tired bug at all. How epic was that battle with Tadokoro and Makabe oh my goodness!? Does anyone else feel the same way? That despite all the critically acclaimed Kurosawa films, this just has SOMETHING, something magical I would have to say. I am ebulliant about this film, please tell me someone else feels the same!
