"Genuinely Magnificent. The Very Finest Of The Genre Ever Made!!" -Los Angeles Times
Spectacular gun battles, epic-sized heroes and an all-star cast that includes Academy Award® winners Yul Brynner and James Coburn, together with Steve McQueen, Eli Wallach and Charles Bronson, make The Magnificent Seven a legend among westerns. Spawning three sequels and a successful television series, and featuring Elmer Bernstein's Oscar®-nominated score, this stunning remake of The Seven Samurai is "a hard-pounding adventure" (Newsweek) and "an enduringly popular" (Leonard Maltin) cinematic classic.
Merciless Calvera (Wallach) and his band of ruthless outlaws are terrorizing a poor Mexican village, and even the bravest lawmen can't stop them. Desperate, the locals hire Chris Adams (Brynner) and six other gunfighters to defend them. With time running out before Calvera's next raid, the heroic seven must prepare the villagers for this battle and help them find the courage to take back their town - or die trying!

A Magnificent film! - 4.75 out of 5 (5/14/2001)
This must be the weekend of Kurosawa for me. I just finished watching THE
MAGNIFICENT SEVEN, which was a loose remake of SEVEN SAMURAI. Before that I
watched HIDDEN FORTESS, which was loosely remade into STAR WARS. Before that
I watched ICE CASTLES, which I only bring up because I'm pretty sure it has
nothing to do with Kurosawa whatsoever.
Back to the matter at hand which is the fantastic special edition, which is
THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN. I'm going to start this off by saying that this

TMS is Magnificent indeed - 4.25 out of 5 (5/10/2001)
MGM/UA has done a great job with the transfer. The colors are rich, and I am also glad to finally view this classic in its original aspect ratio--2.35:1. For those of us who had seen this one on TV with P&S, finally seeing what Panavision offers provides a real treat. I shouldn't forget to mention the great
musical score, which, even if at times a bit repetitive with the main theme, sounds great nonetheless.
