All of the Kozure Ookami movies I've seen have been good (I especially like the fifth one.) I agree that Sanjuro is underrated. Great film, along with Yojimbo. I haven't seen Akakage yet, but I did see Samurai Fiction, which is by the same director (?) I think. That's also pretty sweet. Tasogare Seibei was great, and the new Zatoichi was mediocre. I enjoyed the first bit of Gohatto, because of the sword work, but it got dull, and soupy with the man-love that followed. Mibu Gishi Den is a pretty cool Shinsengumi movie, too.

I haven't really seen any good ninja flicks. I've got Akakage on my "to see" list. Any other recommendations?
