Mibu gishi den A.K.A. “When The Last Sword Is Drawn”
Yet another asian materpiece in which key plot elements are delayed until they will have the best possible effect. This historical drama is excellent and, as with My Sassy Girl, I will give it the best possible score.
As my friend Gabe said, “This is better than ‘The Seven Samurai’. That’s just famous because it was really good for it’s time. Go watch this, dummy!”. As my brother says, “I can’t watch North American movies anymore.” I agree with both of them.
I’m no authority on Samurai movies but I’m willing to take a risk and agree with a user review I saw on IMDB. Best samurai movie ever.
