Una obra maestra

Rating: 10/10 (1 December 2001)

This film would have been the culmination in the race of many directors, the one that would be the best one of its race. The problem of Kurosawa is that this single one is a little better than the rest of its works, since all is of an impressive quality, with films that marked landmarks in the history of the cinema, but that lamentably is not famous by being of Kurosawa, but to arrive amassed at the public by means of remakes of Hollywood (The seven samurais, Rashomon, Yojimbo). A genius of the cinema, to which lamentably most of people it does not know single to be scared to him to everything what it does not come from Hollywood (the same happens with the Manga: everybody says that he is porno and things thus, and they are lost for that reason to a great author like Katshuiro Otomo (Akira, Nightmares, Memories). If Stan Lee were called and were American, everybody would have read Akira. Two great unknown geniuses. A greeting to the world from Oviedo {:¬)
