Seven Samurai was the original and it was great—as far from PC as possible. Seems funny that a movie about Japan was the inspiration for such a classic Western, but the warrior ethos and independence transcend culture. I don’t hold much hope that either theme will survive in this modern version.

Kurosawa deliberately set out to make a “western”.
