Review: Seven Samurai

Seven samurai is an epic adventure classic with an engrossing story, memorable characters, and stunning action sequences that makes it one of the most influential films ever made.

The action takes place in Japan in the sixteenth century. The inhabitants of a village of peasants, tired of being regularly attacked by a horde of bandits decide to do something about it. The village elder member suggests hiring samurai to defend them. After several failed attempts to find samurai willing to fight only in exchange for food, found one called Kanbei, who decides to help. Thanks to Kanbei, get together a group of seven samurai who defend the town more for their courage and ethics by two daily handfuls of rice offered to them.

I loved the realism and authenticity of the film. Compared with today's cinema is a very long movie but no scene is priceless. Another strong point is the characterization and stories of each of the seven samurais.

Definitely Seven Samurai is one of the best films ever made, if you haven't seen it you don't really know what cinema is.
