By Guillaume H (214) on 13 Apr 2013

Review of Kagemusha (1980)

By George N (78) on 26 Oct 2012

Classic Kurosawa! With all the beautiful shots, costumes and back-stabbing feudal Japan. It's what you have come to expect from him…

By Allan F (307) on 27 Sep 2012

Aunque sigue siendo todo un placer ver a Kurosawa manejar samurais, y su factura es impecable, se queda un poco bajo el nivel por, quiza, un…

This is way too easy, try ful director cut of seven hours :-)))…

Review of Kagemusha (1980)

By Jason P (1,193) on 17 Sep 2012

Epic and tragic, true to Kurosawa's later form. A hard film to summarize in a sentence or two…

Review of Kagemusha (1980)

By Mark F (961) on 02 Aug 2012

Though, the film sends mixed signals, not of contradiction, but just all the things that Kurosawa needed to say…

Review of Kagemusha (1980)

Kurosawa doing King Lear in 16th century Japan? Yes, please…

Review of Kagemusha (1980)

By John P (2,089) on 10 Jun 2012

The beauty of Kurosawa is not only the sweeping cinematography that depicts the 16th century battlefields of Japan, but the intricate and thought-provoking…

Review of Kagemusha (1980)

By Jason A (950) on 26 May 2012

Kurosawa didn't disappoint. Maybe a little long at 2 hours 36 minutes but a good watch…

Review of Kagemusha (1980)

By Tom S (1,076) on 25 Apr 2012

This is the first Kurosawa I have seen, and somehow, it is still my favorite to this day…

Review of Kagemusha (1980)

By Jonathan K (715) on 21 Apr 2012

The first time I saw it I liked it better than Ran, but I don't have that opinion anymore…

Review of Kagemusha (1980)

By Chandler B (27) on 27 Mar 2012

A bit tedious but staggeringly beautiful. Some of the best cinematography work I've seen in any film…

Review of Kagemusha (1980)

By Arun J (64) on 25 Mar 2012

I have only read of Kurosawa's imagery, attention to expression and the editing style. My first time on screen…

Review of Kagemusha (1980)

By Reid V (193) on 12 Feb 2012

Kagemusha is a simple, slow-moving, but altogether fascinating look at honor and loyalty…
