The Seven Samurai (Shichinin no Samurai) (1954,  Unrated)
The Seven Samurai (Shichinin no Samurai)
Best action film ever made. Nobody could make a film like this besides Kurosawa; to be able to make an action film 3 hours long and to not have ANY pacing problems, it is a testament to how a film should be made.
