Twilight Samurai was pretty good.

Zatoichi and Bohachi Bushido are great

Ooh! Samurai films, my fav.^^ I really liked Twilight Samurai...I can't wait for that director's third samurai film, Bushi no Ichibun.

When the Last Sword is Drawn--great title, but I thought that was about it. It was painful to watch. Too many men crying.:P

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Masaki Kobayashi yet. His Hara-kiri (Seppuku) is one of the best movies I've ever seen. It's a masterpiece. His Samurai Rebellion is also really good.

So is Okamoto's Kill!--entirely different. Very inky humor. Kurosawa is amazing of course and Iganaki's Musashi trilogy is lots of fun, too (great balance of action and romance:D).

'Seven Samurai' is by far the best that I've seen.

'Last Samurai' may be the worst...
