I've enjoyed some of Akira Kurosawa's works (Yojimbo, Sanjuro, Ran, Seven Samurai, Rashoman), and The Hidden Fortress is on my list, but I'd like to hear any of your suggestions for samurai cinema.

How is the new Shogun? I've heard good things, but haven't had a chance to see it yet.

Really good. I never saw the first one but the latest one was epic.

Tadnobu Asano is a personal favorite actor of mine and he just chews up the scenery whenever he's on screen. I LOVED it. My dad complained that the pacing too slow, but I'm not sure if his real issue wasn't reading subtitles fpr so long.
