I was checking out reviews of the region 2 DVD of Kurosawa's Kagemusha when I came upon this review from DVD Web:
Its always tough watching an ultra slow-paced, sub-titled movie and a decent English soundtrack would probably have helped its cause. Its one to avoid, unless you're an academic enthusiast or a masochist. Many of you will find the best use of this particular DVD as a 'beer mat' for when you supp your chilled ale as you watch the DTS version of 'Predator (Special Edition)'.
Obviously someone like this shouldn't be reviewing the merits of this film (or any film for that matter).
Anyone else have a review that sticks in their craw?
