Samurai Movies Everyone Should Watch

[@Schlegelsteinhausenbergerdorff]

Ah.. I remember buying Twilight Samurai VCD (yes, VCD) back in 2003 at a bookstore along with Samurai Resurrection (also VCD). This bookstore is very special to me because it's where I found Battle Royale, Blue Spring, Getting Any?, Ping-Pong, The Last Samurai, and many more when I was still in highschool (2000-2003), all in VCD format. Also, love Love & Honor.

I was in college when I saw Twilight Samurai, rented it at a store called Hastings, that rented movies, but also sold books, music and movies.

Boy, I agree about the CGI. 13 Assassins (2010) is my favorite movie but the CGI "cattle on fire" just "ejection-seats" me out of the story every time I see it. Seems like something a freshman in a film graphics school could fix in an afternoon, too. I can't stand it - it damages something so great.

[@bushidoblues9302]

@hob976 Yeah, that's my least favorite part too.

Its always so jarring when that scene happens

@schaa50651 thanks, let me know what you think!

[@schaa50651]

@@bushidoblues9302 I would put The Twilight Samurai near or at the top of the list. Out of the 500 (+or- )Samurai movies I own, there are only 10 to 15, I wouldn't watch again. I'm terrible at ranking. I like them all in their own way.

Yeah... because Toshiro Mifune taking on several skilled swordsmen is very believable. Or Ichi. :/
