There are a lot of highlights; the tension of the dialogue between Benkei and Togashi; the splendor of reading out kanjincho; the scene that a limping yamabushi (Yoshitsune in fact) is suspected when they pretend to get away, and Benkei hits his own master hard with a cane; Benkei's dance at the very last feast scene and so forth.
弁慶と富樫のやりとりの緊張感、勧進帳の読み上げの見事さ、一旦逃れられると思わせて足弱の山伏（実は義経）が見とがめられ、弁慶が思い切り主を杖で打つ場面、最期の酒宴の場の弁慶の舞など、見所が多い。
