Consumer Rating: Bad Sleep Well Reviews and Ratings - Rating 4/5   See 2 reviews  | Write a review
Information: Product details
Price Range: $13.00 - $80.00 at 7 stores
Something is rotten in Japan in this engaging drama by acclaimed director Akira Kurosawa. Toshirt Mifune stars as Koichi Nishi, the secretary to the president of a housing corporation, who seeks revenge for his father's murder. At Koichi's marriage to Kieko (Kytko Kagawa), the president's daughter, memories of the death are stirred, and soon corruption within the organization is exposed. Unknown to the officials, Koichi is the hidden force behind the mysterious happenings that begin to weigh on their consciences and ruin their lives. As the story moves toward its tragic conclusion, spectral figures lurk in the darkened streets while others plot and scheme within their shining corporate offices. Loosely based on Shakespeare's HAMLET, Kurosawa's film skillfully combines themes from the classic play with a stylish 1960s film noir mood.

Exposing corporate corruption requires ruthlessness equivalent to the grafters'

by  Stephen_Murray ,  Jan 6, 2005
69 out of 69 people found this review helpful.
Pros: cinematography, acting
Cons: pacing, exposition, and some of the music
The Bottom Line: Downbeat movie, though one of ongoing relevance.
(Plot spoiling section highlighted.)
This reviewer does not recommend this product.
Review: I consider Akira Kurosawa (1910-1998) the greatest of all film-makers and his variation on "King Lear," "Ran" (1985), the culmination of his career one of the five best movies ever made. He directed a large number of great movies, including Seven...
