IMDB

The master samurai stumbles into a clan who is fighting against a dirty superintendent. One of the clansmen's uncle has been kidnapped and the samurai decides to help them get him back and lead them in a fight against the corrupt superintendent and his army.
Kurosawa's sequel to Yojimbo is more action-packed and maybe even funnier than the original. Toshirô Mifune is awesome as the cool masterless samurai. This movie is a little shorter than Yojimbo and features way more slice-and-dice, which is fine by me. The end is especially cool.

10/10

Rating Scale Explanation

The rating scale is simple. 1 is the worst 10 is the best and 5 is mediocre. 5.5 or greater is a movie that I at least find enjoyable. You could also think of 5 as a zero and 1 as a negative 5. I feel like that sounds even more convoluted.
