(1 - 7) of 7 OFCS Rating: 100% Fresh Page   1   86/100 "Why don't we have a Kurosawa altar at which to worship? After all, this is one temple I'd actually attend."   Cinemania   Dan Jardine B "Highly entertaining comical samurai film."   Ozus' World Movie Reviews   Dennis Schwartz 4/4 "By introducing comedy into the mixture and telling the tale from an atypical perspective, Kurosawa has differentiated The Hidden Fortress from nearly every similar feudal era Japanese epic ever committed to the screen. This is a masterpiece."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 3.5/4 "Full of chases, near captures, sword fights, and epic battles, as well as plenty of humor, both of the slapstick and wordplay varieties."   Q Network Film Desk   James Kendrick 3.5/4 "I enjoyed The Hidden Fortress as I do all of Kurosawa's movies...for those wonderful, keenly felt moments of life in harmonious balance with the world surrounding it"   Perihelion Journal   Jay Antani B "...memorable scenes and a touch of samurai honor code and philosophy to ponder"   Old School Reviews   John A. Nesbit 4.5/5 "a masterpiece of composition, atmosphere, and subtext."   Filmcritic.com   Paul Brenner  (1 - 7) of 7 OFCS Rating: 100% Fresh Page   1
