It was very easy for the audiences to understand. It is due to its simplistic storyline, the story is very linear and it gave sense of order. It sends the message out one by one, and the viewer understands what Akira Kurosawa is saying. Then he prepares next message, thus the cycle continues. This cycle is what makes Throne of Blood a masterpiece (“Samurai Macbeth”). It is easy to understand and it does not require people to think deeply before moving on to the next scene. It is not too flashy, Akira Kurosawa is not trying to impress people with tricks, or complicated story. But he is trying to impress with a film that is easy to see and follow. The main weakness of the Throne of Blood is that it is lacking substances. It is good to be simplistic, but there is too little substance. The lack of substance may result many viewers becoming bored and there are more drama than action (Bruce F. Kawin and Mast, Gerald). It is different kind of drama, the actors are all tensed up and some of those raw emotions may not be able to reach the viewers. It is mainly because over exaggerated body movements and language. On other hand, Scotland, Pa is too messy to understand. Billy Morrissette tries to impress the audience with the dark-comedy, but the story is hard to comprehend and does not bother explaining many unanswered scenes to the audiences. One major flaw is that it repeats many of its joke and scenes. There is background information on certain characters that are never explained, but it is assumed the viewers will understand. For instance, throughout the movie characters mentioned Duncan’s fortune is from his previous doughnut business. Behold, they were referring to Dunkin Doughnuts and the word wacky-tobacky is referring to marijuana. Many scenes are skimmed through, and some were done very poorly. It felt extremely rushed, especially during the ending. This is expected to happen, as the movie vowed not to follow
