“‘Seven Samurai’ illustrates most of all, perhaps, Kurosawa's development as a technician whose brilliance is unsurpassed by any director in the contemporary cinema. It is as sheer narrative, rich in imagery, incisiveness and sharp observation, that this remarkable film makes its strongest impact. The invention is prolific; one sequence (the search for Samurai in the city) may be built on swift, dynamic editing, another (the capture and death of a thief in the village) by marvellously judged use of slow motion, another (Kikuchiyo's drunken brawl with the Samurai) by intricately virtuoso camera movement. ‘Seven Samurai’ provides a fascinating display of talent, and places its director in the forefront of creative film-makers of his generation.” — Gavin Lambert
