User Review - 10/10 by Art SOutstanding story, I was blown away. Perhaps one of the best Chambara film there is. Love the twist and turns!

User Review - 8/10 by Slothbear TA pretty good Samurai drama. Hideo Gosha obviously got most of his storytelling and cinematography ideas from Akira Kurosawa. My only real complaint is the protagonist's wife's bad teeth. It was really unpleasent to look at and led me to wonder why the protagonist didn't dump her for the other girl in the movie.

User Review - 8/10 by Bertrand WUn chambara crepusculaire offrant une photographie exemplaire, mettant les 4 elements a l'honneur : la boue, la neige et l'ocean, le vent et le feu. Une celebration de l'individu moral contre le groupe corrompu.
User Review - 8/10 by Aurelien BI like a good hero and the hero in this story definitely delivers with a great deal of heart. A snow covered landscape provides a very serene atmosphere throughout and is the perfect compliment to the story that unfolds. The production quality of this film was excellent.
User Review - 8/10 by Orlok WDefinitely one of Nakadai's more memorable roles. Some otherwise good characters in this as well. A slow start but well worth it by the end. One of Gosha's better films.
User Review - 8/10 by Michael TGoyokin is a splendid chanbara classic. The story is compelling (despite feeling familiar), the lead performance by the great Nakadai is brilliant, and the pacing and sense of tension and excitement is great. The action scenes are especially commendable because they feel uniquely realistic. There are great moments that are actual fight scenes instead of the the usual "slaying scenes." It really allows you to appreciate Nakadai's skill and intensity. The score is a bit cheesy and the story hard to follow at times, but overall Goyokin is an easily enjoyable samurai classic.
User Review - 8/10 by Walter Mone of the great samurai films of all time. it takes a small hit because of a very slow start, but once the film picks up steam it is marvelous. nakadai is brilliant as always, the cinematography is sensational, and the locations are beautiful providing the perfect mood of serenity for the story. this film would not have worked as well were it not shot in deep winter, but once the mood is set it captures the soul. great film.
User Review - 6/10 by Tim MGorgeous snowy landscapes abutting the sea. Mostly drama, little action. It's slow in parts, but quite impressive given when it came out.
