Seven Samurai
The Mighty Warriors Who Became the Seven National Heroes of a Small Town
Patron Exclusive Review Episode 83
And no, Tom Cruise is not one of them
Long before Sylvester Stallone forged a franchise out of expendable he-men from the 1980s, director Akira Kurasawa created one of the most celebrated tough guys teams in cinematic history. Can his Seven Samurai still wow action movie fans 70 years after first coming together to stop a band of merciless crop thieves? Or will Jakob, Stuart, and Arnie laugh like Toshiro Mifune watching the spectacle of ronin trying to whip unsophisticated farmers into a formidable killing force? Join the ranks of Now Playing Patrons this August and find out!
