The indian killing destroyed the movie!
I really enjoyed this movie.
I appreciated the relationship between Bronson and Mifune and thought that many of the unspoken moments were more powerful than the written dialogue. Mifuneās dialogue about the end of the samurai was particularly poignant.
I donāt really give a damn whether this is classified as a SW or a Eurowestern eitherā¦Iāll leave this one up to the philosophers. 
4/5 stars.
Thereās a special thread for these questions. For whom it may concern ;D
Iāve been watching to these one during the xmas period. With such a cast it seems to me that I could have been much better.
The best part of the movie are the nudity ones. Ursula Andress looks really gorgeous!
Emanuel review now online:
very good western from begining to the end
A very good idea but the film itself is only moderately entertaining. It lacks any sort of drive or style and doesnāt really make the most of its concept.
A poor movie from Charles bronson.
I like Toshiro Mifune a lot, but I was never much of a Charles Bronson fan. I never really cared much for Red Sun. Iāve seen it twice; once as a kid, and a second time a couple of years ago. I liked it a bit better the second time, but not by much.

Funny how the film stars an actor from Seven Samurai (Toshiro Mifune, who was Kikuchiyo) and the Magnificent Seven (Charles Bronson, who was OāReilly) in the same movie.
I donāt think the character of Jubei (if thatās how itās spelled) was explored enough, but he was interesting I guess. There could have been more exploration of his motives and feelings.
A decent enough film but far from a great one imo. Not a crime in and of itself of course but Red Sun promised a lot more than it delivered in the end, I felt. The ingredients for greatness were all there in front of AND behind the camera, certainly.
After watching and reviewing too many silly comedies and inferior imitations of the real stuff, I felt the need to stay away from the genre for a while. I took up the habit of reviewing with this ragbag of a movie.
Not really a masterpiece, but I had not seen it in years and it was better, or at least more entertaining than I remembered

Ragbag is a bit harsh. I agree with the musical score it is lacking in excitement and sense of genre.
āRed Sunā had two good things going for itā¦ and they both belonged to Ursula Andress.
Have to agree with that!
