Legend of the Seven Samurai/Sh

Rating:
Summary: I've Seen This As EIGHT Samurai, not Seven
Review: This is a tough movie to follow, and a real departure for Chiba from the 80's kung-fu stuff. This is basically Kabuki theatre on film. I can't recommend it for kung fu fans, but it is an interesting piece of cheaply-available DVD fodder for Chiba fans.
Certainly worh the few dollars. Can't tell if it was filmed in widescreen or not for sure, but the DVD is full-frame.
