During the Warring States Period in Japan, a mountain village full of desolate mountains and rivers was attacked by robbers every year when the wheat was harvested. This year, the villagers decided to hire seven samurai to defend their village and harvest. The seven samurai were Kanbei, Kuzo, Katsushiro, Goro, Shichiro, Heihachi, and Kikuchiyo, a farmer posing as a samurai. The samurai Kanbingbei is a man with strong pace and rich combat experience. He is responsible for commanding the entire village to prepare for defense. During the raid on the robber’s nest, the samurai Kuzo and Kikuchiyo killed several robbers, but the samurai Heihachi was shot and killed to save the farmer Riki. The samurai and the villagers held shovel and bamboo spear in their hands and guarded the village, cleverly repelling the robber's attacks, but in the resistance Nakakayama Gorobei died in battle. On the day of the decisive battle, 13 robbers rushed into the village on horseback. In the fight, the robbers hit Jiuzang with firecrackers. Kikuchiyo killed the last enemy with anger and hatred, and fell to the ground due to a shot. The robbers were finally wiped out, but the villagers also paid a great price. The seven samurai finally killed four, leaving four samurai swords on the grave to pierce the sky. After the war, the samurai left the village, and the leader of the samurai Kanbei could not help but sigh: "This is also a defeat.It is not the samurai who won, but the farmers."

[S] Second brush, [A -] rise [S] It is undoubtedly a masterpiece. The faults are still those found in the first brush, but the second brush feels not worth mentioning; the advantages are still the ones felt when the first brush, but the second brush feels that this is more than an advantage, the last 20 minutes is simply a miracle. However, I found that I once only focused on the director and ignored this god-level script. The countless dark lines were arranged quite appropriately, not only the samurai lament, but also a class rights fable. It is indeed amazing many times, but in fact it has many shortcomings. What is rare is that the story of a small village defending has an epic temperament. The seven samurai are well-formed in detail, and the characters have their own characteristics and are very full; each side line is intertwined with each other but the control is very perfect. There is no sense of fatigue for three and a half hours, but the meaning is still not exhausted. However, many plots are too detailed, leading to a lot of waste drama; although detailed, it makes the whole film less refined. Many people say it is the tragedy of the times, but I don't see how much the powerlessness of the times, it is more sorrow for the samurai itself.
