VHS Movie Reviews of Samurai Rebellion
Movie Review: samurai rebellion
Summary: 4 Stars
by far my favorite samurai movie of all time. just can't believe kurusawa didn't direct. not much in the way of special features but a terrific rendition of the film. All the lessons of the zato ichi movies in one congruent powerful film
Summary of Samurai Rebellion
This samurai classic, set in 18th-century Japan, combines great acting and thrilling action with thoughtful writing and direction. The magnificent Toshiro Mifune (Seven Samurai, The Samurai Trilogy) stars as Isaburo, a renowned swordsman who is the essence of samurai loyalty until his overlord demands the return of a former mistress, Isaburo's beloved daughter-in-law. The injustice to his family forces Isaburo to take a heroic stand for individual freedom and moves him toward a revolt he can never win. Written by Shinobu Hashimoto (Rashomon) and directed by Masaki Kobayashi (Harakiri, Kwaidan), Samurai Rebellion is "a clear departure from the norm...a compelling legend stressing one man's opposition to tyranny in an age when such opposition was unthinkable" (The New York Times). The bloody climax rages with power and emotion.Action & Adventure VHS Video
