Yojimbo may not be up there with Sanjuro and The Seven Samurai, but it is still an excellent samurai flick. Yojimbo has a peculiar blend of comedy and savagery, and overall it is not a very heavy or serious film, despite all the violence. While it can be easy to lose track of the plot, it is just as easy to pick it back up again. If you have difficulty reading subtitles, be warned, on this disc they are poorly done.
