Title: Not for the modern movie goer
Review: Seven Samuri is a great movie, but it shows it's age. Classic but not really standing well against time. The action scenes are good if you don't pay attention to the details in what seems to be a lack of skill for these Samurai. Many things are taken for granted and not explored, such as the skill of the Samurai and the plight of the farmers. I am a modern movie goer and in an attempt to see where the movies of today were spawned from, I watched this movie. I was disappointed on some levels, but impressed on others. It isn't what you think, but it still gives you something you didn't think you would find. If you think you can sit through a three and half hour movie that does not concern itself much with pace, you should watch it.
