Rashomon...After a samurai is found dead in the forest, three suspects are all telling the story from different point of view.
Richly detailed masterpiece, from a moviemaking legend Akira Kurosawa, who's glamour, unique vision and hard moviemaking style is perfectly presented in this Japanese action/drama flick, since most of the Kurosawa's movies are very difficult to understand, then Rashomon's story is complicated, but it ain't as challenging as some of his other masterworks.
One of the finest directing jobs with Rashomon of his entire career with Rashomon, every small plot detail add stupendous amount of intrigues to the story, as you can see it from three different perspectives no-one really made it completely clear which one is the truth.
Characters are evolving and developing with glory, maniacal, smart and very important to the story, truly even the smallest side characters gave a decent amount of drama to the story that was already filled with intrigues.
Miraculously packed action sequences, scenes brilliantly geo and choreographed.
Rashomon is a book, with only drawings in it, your quest is to calibrate and carve it in your mind, due to Kurosawa unique directing style, it's hard to always fully understand it, but it's one movie that clearly deserves nothing less than a watch, and being both great for movie buffs and regular people.
Rating: 3,5/4
