This is not Kurosawa's best work, yet it stands head and shoulers above most action films. Its loose storyline is actually a benefit, and shows that spaghetti westerns have nothing on samurai epics.There isn't a whole lot of deep philosophy or soul-searching in this film. It's basically very straightforward action. Don't be fooled, though, there are quite a number of twists and turns, and though the action drives the film, there are some truly profound lines of dialogue.
