Well I said it was a "good remake".

I think it would be harsh to call it a rip-off, but it isnt exactly a homage, as its made in a completely different setting. I also doubt it was advertised back then as being influenced by Kurosawa, but that was more likely due to the audience not knowing much about asian cinema, rather than them being sneeky and trying to rip-off his immortal classic.
