    I do love Dirty Dozen, but Seven Samurai is the oft imitated, never beaten, in the desperate last stand for a hastily put together team film that has my number one pick.

      I know it’s heresy, but I’ll got with “The Magnificent Seven” with McQueen, Coburn, and Bronson over Seven Samurai.

      Which reminds me of anther comment I made in this thread.

      ‘Yojimbo’ stole its plot from a book called “Red Harvest.” A middle-aged fat man who drinks too much gets hire to investigate corruption in a mining town. He decides that the only way to clean out the town is to blow it wide open.
