Kakushi-toride no san-akunin rating: (out of 4 stars) Japan; 1958 Directed by Akra Kurosawa; produced by Sanezumi Fujimoto, Akira Kurosawa; written by Shinobu Hashimoto, Ryuzo Kikushima, Akira Kurosawa, Hideo Oguni Starring Toshirô Mifune, Misa Uehara, Minoru Chiaki, Kamatari Fujiwara, Takashi Shimura, Susumu Fujita Below you will find a temporary review for this film. The real (better, more complete) review will be online very soon.
'The Hidden Fortress', one of the great inspirations for 'Star Wars', is a
more commercial and therefore more entertaining film from Akira Kurosawa.
Although 'Rashomon', 'Yojimbo' and 'Shichinin No Samurai', to name a few,
are better movies they are more serious and artistic than this one.
