Tokyo Story (1972) added to Top 100 Favorite Movies of All Time list.
SceneItReviews rated and reviewed a movie.

Kagemusha is often regarded as Kurosawa's dress rehearsal for 'Ran', and while the latter is superior, Kagemusha is a powerful epic in its own right. Exploring the power of leadership, and the role of duty in society, Kurosawa uses his signature p... Read the full review »

Ikiru is Kurosawa's melancholic rhapsody of the importance of living, and through an all-time great performance from Takashi Shimura, we the audience can easily empathize and meditate on this somber tale of life, death, and joy. Read the full review »

Sanjuro feels like the adequate thematic precursor to 'Ran', and I for one, cannot complain. While not nearly as epic and sprawling as the aforementioned film, Sanjuro is a significant improvement on Yojimbo, imbuing the story with thematic heft,... Read the full review »

Yojimbo is Kurosawa's quintessential action/dramedy, and it effervesces with witty dialogue and heart palpitating tension. While being entertaining, as a Kurosawa fan I do often see this as one of his films that tends to lack in poignancy, with th... Read the full review »
