Jumping Elephant
Of course, the western genre is the perfect place for any American remake of a samurai film, and this goes to prove it. But while this had nothing on its predecessor (which was almost an hour and a half longer and far more entertaining), "Seven" did have its moments; The photography and craftsmanship were top notch. The acting though seemed a little stiff with certain characters (while others like Brynner and Wallach were great). Overall, I give the film one star for each star. 7/10 11 years 10 months ago -
ReVision
Im a huge fan of Shichinin no samurai (Seven Samurai), on which this movie is based. So i was kinda hesitant to watch this to be honest. But now that i've watched it, i really liked it... alot.
Sure it's not as good as Seven Samurai, but it is still very much a great movie.
In fact it is now one of my favorite Westerns for sure. 4 years 8 months ago
