Review of Seven Samurai (1954) by Sumanjit R — 22 Feb 2013
Awarding the title 'masterpiece', as well as 'classic' to any film, is a tricky and often dangerous one. But this film deserves them in the fullest sense and honour of the words. The acting is exceptional, the action is fantastic, the cinematography and mise-en-scene wonderful.
Kurosawa combines the excitement of an action film, with the calm study of people, in a racing powerful and breathtaking piece of real cinema. This is cinema glorified to its most powerful.
