It's good, but I like the '77 remake by Lucas better.

I was expecting more. Instead I got a lot of lulling moments. Good to see Mifune be a one man ass kicking machine again. Nice ending. I could have done with fewer comic relief peasant duo scenes or some development/redemption on their end. Watched it for the Star Wars comparisons and I don't really see it.

Even lesser Kurosawa is still Kurosawa. The main characters weren't very interesting, especially the two peasants. And as usual, humor in Kurosawa films doesn't really translate well. But still, it's an exciting action adventure film.

Slightly long. Minor characters good, but can definitely see how in George Lucas's hands they became insufferable.

Way funnier than I was expecting and the locations are breathtaking. But, in the end, you're watching because it's Kurosawa and what can I say about Kurosawa that hasn't been said before? He's a genius.

Mifune is of course awesome and always such a magnetic presence on screen. Uehara is great too, constantly posturing and posing and not at any point outdone by Mifune. The endless whimsy and foolish greed of the two peasants (who are still superb) is a little wearing at times and means that along with the simple story this feels a little weightless compared to Kurosawa at his best. It may not punch weight with Kurosawa's very best, but is full of great set pieces and is a load of fun.
