_A Samurai in Time_ is one of the most heartwarming time-traveling films you will ever see. The characters are well-written and you become fully invested in the story. For a guy who did the majority of the behind-the-scenes work himself, director Junichi Yasuda has crafted a genuine film of kindness, integrity, and purely delightful entertainment.

<em>'A Samurai in Time'</em> is truly splendid. I wouldn't actually describe it as anything super enthralling or anything, but it is supremely watchable, fairly amusing and surprisingly hearty - the 120+ minute run time flew by. I'd happily revisit this one.
The performances of Makiya Yamaguchi and Norimasa Fuke are of real quality, both individually and as a collective. I totally believed and...
*A Samurai in Time* is an obvious love-letter to the *jidaigeki* genre and as such, a clearly personal project for writer/director Jun’ichi Yasuda, who funded the film’s production with his own money. *A Samurai in Time* is certainly charming and pleasant. So much so, in facy, that I do feel kind of bad for not liking it more than I did.
