Suzuki Noribumi, also known as Suzuki Norifumi, was a Japanese film director and screenwriter. He is best known for the Torakku Yaro series.

Suzuki was born in 1933 in Shizuoka. He dropped out of Ritsumeikan University's Department of Economics, and subsequently joined Toei's Kyoto Studio as an assistant director in 1956, learning his craft under Makino Masahiro, Kato Tai, and Uchida Tomu. He made his screenwriting debut on director Uchide Kokichi's 1963 film Zoku: Tenamonya Sandogasa (co-written with Sawada Takaharu), and his directorial debut in 1965 with Osaka Dokonjo Monogatari: Doerai Yatsu, starring Fujita Makoto.

At the behest of Toei producer Okada Shigeru, Suzuki wrote the script for female gambler film Red Peony Gambler (1968) starring Fuji Junko, which became a hit series spanning eight films. His 1975 film Torakku Yaro: Goiken Muyo, starring Sugawara Bunta and co-written with Sawai Shinichiro, was also a huge success and spawned nine sequels.

After directing and co-writing Kotaro Makaritoru! (1984), Suzuki left Toei to go freelance. At the 1985 Yokohama Film Festival, he was awarded a special prize for his career.

Suzuki's last film was Binbari High School, released in 1990 and produced by Wakamatsu Koji. He died at the age of 80 in May 2014.
