Review of Seven Samurai (1954) by Rafael U — 06 Apr 2013

So many words come to my mind in describing Akira Kurosawa's epic action drama Seven Samurai. it's definitely one of the rare film we could describe as "perfect". It's quite long (about 3h30) and really slow, but everything is extremely well planed and precise.

This movie represents in its own all the japanese culture and principal values of this civilization. Everyhting in this movie is really intense and so deep (maybe the deepest movie ever made). Seriously, if you haven't seen Seven Samurai then you're not really qualified to call yourself a film fan.
