Akira Kurosawa's rousing Seven Samurai was a natural for an American remake--after all, the codes and conventions of ancient Japan and the Wild West (at least the mythical movie West) are not so very far apart. Thus The Magnificent Seven effortlessly turns samurai into cowboys (the same trick worked more than once: Kurosawa's Yojimbo became Sergio Leone's A Fistful of Dollars). The beleaguered denizens of a Mexican village, weary of attacks by banditos, hire seven gunslingers to repel the invaders once and for all. The gunmen are cool and capable, with most of the actors playing them just on the cusp of '60s stardom: Steve McQueen, James Coburn, Charles Bronson, Robert Vaughn. The man who brings these warriors together is Yul Brynner, the baddest bald man in the West. There's nothing especially stylish about the approach of veteran director John Sturges (The Great Escape), but the storytelling is clear and strong, and the charisma of the young guns fairly flies off the screen. If that isn't enough to awaken the 12-year-old kid inside anyone, the unforgettable Elmer Bernstein music will do it: bum-bum-ba-bum, bum-ba-bum-ba-bum.... Followed by three inferior sequels, Return of the Seven, Guns of the Magnificent Seven, and The Magnificent Seven Ride! --Robert Horton

The history and making of the movie is just as fascinating as the movie itself. Personally, I feel this movie contains Charles Bronson's greatest performance. The relationship, that he has ...

Seldom mentioned in discussions of "The Magnificent Seven" is the appearance of the stunning Mexican actress Rosenda Montero, the romantic interest of the character Chico. Now in her 70's, she appeared in very few American films,(She appeared in "She," with Ursula Andress) but had a big career in Mexican movies. I would love to have seen more of her exotic beauty in "Seven," but there were only a few shots of her. I think she is one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen in a film, in terms of ...

One of the best westerns made. The cast was the right mix for the story line.

Even if the western genre isn't your thing this is a "must have" for any DVD collection. As fresh today as when it was filmed. The price is fantastic!
