Two solid hours of characters staring intensely out of rain-slicked windows. Brilliant work, Yojimbo.

Counted four explosions before the studio logo finished. Yojimbo knows its audience.

The cinematography in Yojimbo is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows
Everyone praising the Yojimbo performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in Yojimbo actually is?
Rewatched Yojimbo last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in Yojimbo?
Look, I wanted to love Yojimbo. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.
