Leave your thoughts about Mifune: The Last Samurai.
| Black Girl NerdsLeonardo FaiermanAt the absolute least, you will certainly leave the theater with a list of excellent Toshiro Mifune movies that you either missed altogether, or will be re-watching as soon as possible. |
| The Daily BeastNick SchagerHis was a career full of performances that combined stoic stillness and fiery animalistic expressiveness, and come next Friday, it'll receive a fitting tribute from a compelling new documentary, Mifune: The Last Samurai. |
| Reeling ReviewsRobin CliffordI do not see an audience much beyond people like me, but people like me will love "Mifune: The Last Samurai." |
| Los Angeles TimesKenneth TuranAs directed by Oscar-winning documentarian Steven Okazaki, "Mifune" is thorough and insightful enough to enlighten the man's numerous fans and serve as an introduction to those unfamiliar with his gifts and his influence, which were huge. |
| VarietyOwen GleibermanA dutiful and diverting but rather bare-bones documentary portrait. |
| TheWrapJames GreenbergThe real accomplishment of Mifune: The Last Samurai, and perhaps of any successful documentary about cinema history, is that it makes you want to run out and see the movies all over again. |
| San Francisco ChronicleG. Allen JohnsonIt’s a film sure to delight fans and make new ones of one of the movies’ most special personalities. |
| Boston GlobeMark FeeneyWe hear from Spielberg, Martin Scorsese, several still-awed costars, one of Mifune’s sons, Kurosawa’s script supervisor, and a film sword master identified as “killed by Mifune more than a hundred times.” |
| Movie NationRoger MooreEven if it is too brief and leaves too much out to be “definitive,” it serves up heaping helpings of Mifune’s film work and bits of home movies and the like to create a fascinating man-behind the stoic face/samurai icon below-the-topknot portrait of Mifune. |
| RogerEbert.comGlenn KennyWhat the movie is very good at revealing and expanding upon is how this reluctant actor became such a masterful one. |
