A really good film, good script, well directed and well acted.

If it wasn't for the immaculate beauty of Kurosawa's Kagemusha, this black and white masterpiece would be the most beautiful movie ever caught on camera. There are scenes upon scenes of astonishing beauty. The only thing I hoped from the God-awful remake (avoid plz) was some color to the iconic scenes, but when I got my wish, I realized what a fool I'd been, it's the very absence of color that complements every scene perfectly.The cast is absoutely sublime. Nakadai is in top form as always, and even though I enjoyed his character in Sword of Doom more, the character Kobayashi crafted for him for this movie is nevertheless perfect. The supporting cast deserves some praise too, it even has a child character I actually cared about. RIP Kingo.
The movie is masterfully crafted. Simply put, it's a story within a story, but there's so much more. There are very subtle nuances in scenes that you might miss, unless you are well versed in the history of Sengoku Jidai. Also the the build up of the movie is brilliant, it makes you wonder about the motives of its characters.
And what about that swordplay? Perfect, absolutely perfect. The duel scene is fantastic, everyone agrees to that, it's the very embodiment of why Jidaigeki movies are such great journeys. But it's the desperate sword fight in the end that I love the most, the emotions run high as Nakadai's character desperately fights off his foes and finally succumbs to his fate, and then we get the ending shot which is the very same which greeted us at the start, just... Perfect.

Better then anything Kurosawa ever made.goldan
It's an interesting movie that shows the fall of the samurai culture.Overall, it's a good movie but I felt it was a bit too long.
