    5.0 out of 5 stars Tom Cruise As A Samurai
    Reviewed in Canada on August 1, 2022
    Verified Purchase
    I think Tom Cruise is a better actor than, for whatever reason, he's given credit for. And as unlikely as it sounds, he actually manages to make his transition in this film from Western mercenary to Japanese samurai work. Who knew?
    Cruise plays the part of a veteran of the so-called "Indian Wars" which were conducted by the U.S. Cavalry in the American southwest after the Civil War. He is clearly suffering from what now would be recognized as PTSD. Since he can find succour no where else, he drinks, a lot. Also, figuring he has nothing to lose & needs money to continue to keep himself in liquor, his character signs on as part of an American contingent of mercenaries hired by a Japanese magnate to help transform the Japanese military from the fiefdom of the samurai to a modern, Western-style army fighting with rifles instead of swords.
    As it turns out, Cruise is captured by the very Japanese warlord he was sent to help annihilate. As his captivity lengthens and Cruise is exposed to the culture of his captors, his transformation begins. Although this story covers some familiar ground & is burdened with more than a few cinematic cliches, Cruise & the other players in this tale make what happens still seem fresh. Remember what I said about Cruise being underrated as an actor.
    The battle sequences, as well as all of those having to do with Japanese locales, are very ably rendered. As well, the film is dealing with events that actually happened. When the Meiji Emperor was restored to effective rule, thereby ending centuries of rule by a Shogun who was always a member of the samurai elite, Japan embraced change with a vengeance, transforming their society from a feudal one ruled by the samurai to a nation that would humiliate & defeat Russia in 1905. The film does a more than credible job of explicating the differences between the feudal samurai code of Bushido & the modern, Western capitalist system of devil take the hindmost that was pushing to replace it. (As it turned out, the Japanese developed a hybrid system that emphasized the worst aspects of both credos.)
    This is a rollicking good tale that will provide some entertainment perhaps a little better than was expected.

    Captain Nathan Algren accepts a job to train Japanese soldiers. Samurai are the old ways, Japan wants to modernize. The enemy to fight are the old enemy- the Samurai. Rifles vs. Swords. Soldiers are defeated and Captain Algren is a captured prisoner. The scenery is absolutely beautiful. Immersed in their culture, Nathan learns the language and the way of the Samurai. Sword fighting is poetry in motion. Nathan now fights with the Samurai, against the Japanese soldiers. It’s like the battle of 300 against the Persians.

    Be aware that this review might gives some spoilers.

    I love this movie for several reasons. The first one is the reminding of the Wooden Knee massacre of December 29, 1980, were something like 150 Lakota American Indians man, women and even children were literally slaughtered by the US army, which is giving so much credibility to the main character played by Tom Cruise, a man destroyed by his guilt for having participated to the killing of those defenceless people. This reminder is also a link from the past and the present of the story where he is offered the invaluable chance of regaining his honor and healing from his wounds. The second reason why I enjoyed this movie so much is the effort from the producers in their attempt to create a story as true as possible of the real destiny and faith of the samurais, which is, as well, adding so much to the credibility of the story itself.

    This said, the picture and the landscapes are marvelous and the way they used to live in their country is presented in such a way that you can fell the serenity and the peace that surround them even in this particular trouble time of their evolution under the pressure of our modern world.

    It is a movie that touches the consciousness. It is also a movie of war and peace, of hate and love, and the story of a dying world that will never come back.

    A must.

    On paper this movie is a little silly - a disenchanted white American war hero is recruited by the Japanese government to train soldiers and fight an insurgence of samurai warriors in the 1870's. But as the movie progresses, you begin to fall in love with the characters that are developed in depth and with great detail, and the story they tell is one that encompasses many emotions and subjects. I don't want to spoil anything, but one of my biggest takeaways from this film is the idea of the development of love and appreciation that can be born from something unknown or even feared. Tom Cruise is great in this movie - again, on paper the idea of him playing this character seems a little unfitting, but he does such a good job in this role and I think that's one of the biggest elements that makes the film so good overall. The music is also incredible and is one of the other elements that I think really helps to transport you to the place and time in which it is set. I honestly don't know if there is any historical significance or relevance to the story, but regardless, I highly recommend it!

    ....His diversity of roles. 'The Last Samurai' is a movie that is by the numbers without any great surprises. It is not an epic nor is it a cheapskate historical film. However, it does have a cogent script, fantastic scenery, good photography and solid performances all round from its cast. Movies like this and 55 Days at Peking or The Sand Pebbles perhaps show why China has no trust of the West. They have long memories plus the physical remnants of when the West lorded over them & are determined not to let it happen again. This is an engaging movie that stands up well to repeated viewings.

    Tom Cruise is a famous actor worldwide. Most of you have seen his work in various films, such as A Few Good Men or Jerry Maguire. However, Tom is back in a new movie, which takes the audience back into an era of the past - one that surrounds us in the days of the Civil War. Tom Cruise portrays a man named Nathan Algren, who is a hero during the Civil War, but is disillusioned of the terrible killings he had to perform under the leadership of Colonel Bagloney against the American Indians. He is hired, by the Japanese Emperor, to take down another rebellion by leading a army of Japanese peasants that never saw a gun in their life. Even though he trains them for a time, the rebels attack and Algren is ordered to track them down and defeat the adversary, despite the fact that more training is needed.
    Fighting somewhere in the forests of Japan, his army is easily defeated and the rebels capture him and take him back to their village. Becoming a captive and not having a chance to escape, due to the fact that winter's coming, Algren spends his time with these people, already inspired and intrigued. He comes to learn that these people are "Samurai", who serve the Emperor and follow life through a different path and a set of principles that keep their life in balance, using such values as loyalty, duty, and compassion, just to name a few. Only one problem remains - Japan is facing a new modernized world and is seeking to keep up with the times by throwing away the traditions of old in favor of a more-friendly government. The rebellion, lead by a samurai named Katsumoto (portrayed by Ken Watanbe), despies that idea and fight back in order to keep their sacred ways alive. Gaining his sense of honor and redemption back, Algren joins the Samurai and aids them in a fierce battle that decides Japan's history for the rest of time.
    The movie does have its dose of action scenes and story moments, but what really make this movie unique are its philosophical moments. The Samurai, as you know, are people that follow the way of the Bushido, the traditional code of the Japanese samurai, stressing honor, self-discipline, bravery, and simple living. It's the type of values that most people wish to live by, but the Samurai go far beyond that. If they are defeated in battle, then it means that they have dishonored themselves and their clan, thus will kill them for disgracing their families and those close to him or her. It's a tough life, to be sure, but it's the principles of their life that stands out. Tom Cruise said it best about the Samurai: "They are an intriguing people. From the moment they wake, they devote themselves to the perfection of whatever they pursue. I have never seen such strong discipline."
    In order for the movie to display any realism, the movie was shot around various locations in Japan, from a temple located in Kyoto to a small Japanese town called Himeji. Not only the locations needed to be authentic, but also so did everything else, as this movie took place in two different worlds. Everything had to blend in for the movie a sense of honesty into the whole project. Though there is some historical inconsistencies in the plot, since this is based on a certain era in the past, those can be looked past.
    The action is wild, but again, had to be realistic. So realistic, in fact, that there was some close calls on the set. Tom Cruise could have died, since an actor's sword nearly beheaded him. That's just one example, but just by checking out the loads of extras on the DVDs, the entire team was committed to the project, making sure that everything went smooth and made the picture look good as a whole. The fighting sequences also add some depth and insight as to how the Japanese and Americans deal with combat, especially in the climatic battle that had both samurai and soldier confronting each other in the end.
    Overall, The Last Samurai is worth checking out, especially if you are a student of Japanese history or if you're into everything or anything Japanese. It's also some of Tom Cruise's best work by far. Anyone that's a huge fan of Cruise ought to pick up The Last Samurai.

    "Last Samurai" (2003) ist ein episches Historien-Drama unter der Regie von Edward Zwick, das im Japan der späten 1870er Jahre spielt. Der Film erzählt die Geschichte des amerikanischen Kriegsveteranen Captain Nathan Algren (gespielt von Tom Cruise) und seine Begegnung mit der untergehenden Kultur der Samurai.

    Die Handlung beginnt kurz nach dem Amerikanischen Bürgerkrieg. Algren ist ein traumatisierter und desillusionierter Held, der an PTSD leidet und seinen Lebensunterhalt mit der Bewerbung von Schusswaffen verdient. Er wird von der japanischen Regierung, angeführt vom jungen Kaiser Meiji (Shichinosuke Nakamura), angeheuert. Der Kaiser strebt eine schnelle Modernisierung Japans nach westlichem Vorbild an, was den Bau von Eisenbahnen, die Einführung moderner Waffen und die Abschaffung traditioneller Strukturen einschließt.

    Algrens Aufgabe ist es, die neu formierte, unerfahrene japanische Armee in modernen Kampftechniken auszubilden, um den Aufstand der letzten Samurai unter ihrem Anführer Katsumoto (Ken Watanabe) niederzuschlagen. Katsumoto ist ein hoch angesehener Bushi und ein Traditionalist, der die westliche Einmischung und die Abkehr von den alten Werten Japans ablehnt.

    Während eines Gefechts gegen Katsumotos Krieger wird Algrens Regiment vernichtend geschlagen. Algren selbst, der sich tapfer, aber aussichtslos wehrt, wird von Katsumoto gefangen genommen, da dieser von Algrens Kampfgeist beeindruckt ist. Katsumoto bringt Algren in sein verstecktes Bergdorf, wo er ihn nicht als Gefangenen, sondern als Gast behandelt.

    In den Monaten, die Algren bei den Samurai verbringt, lernt er ihre Lebensweise, ihre Disziplin, ihre Philosophie des Bushidō (Weg des Kriegers) und ihre tiefe Verbundenheit mit Ehre, Respekt und Spiritualität kennen. Er trainiert mit ihnen im Schwertkampf und lernt Japanisch. Algren ist fasziniert von ihrer Lebensweise, die im starken Kontrast zu seinem eigenen, von Gewalt und Verlust geprägten Leben steht. Er findet eine Art inneren Frieden und Respekt für die Samurai, der seine anfängliche Verachtung ablöst. Er entwickelt eine tiefe Bindung zu Katsumoto und seiner Familie, insbesondere zu Taka (Koyuki), der Schwester eines von ihm getöteten Samurai.

    Als der Frühling kommt, muss Algren eine Entscheidung treffen: Soll er zu seiner alten Welt zurückkehren oder bei den Samurai bleiben, die nun seinen tiefsten Respekt gewonnen haben? Er beschließt, an der Seite der Samurai in ihrem letzten, verzweifelten Kampf gegen die überlegene moderne Armee des Kaisers zu stehen, wohlwissend, dass es ein Kampf bis zum bitteren Ende sein wird.

    Der Film gipfelt in einer epischen und tragischen Schlacht, die das Ende einer Ära und den Triumph des Wandels über die Tradition symbolisiert, aber auch die unsterbliche Ehre und den Geist der Samurai würdigt. "Last Samurai" ist bekannt für seine visuelle Pracht, die starken Darstellerleistungen (insbesondere Ken Watanabe, der für einen Oscar nominiert wurde) und die Auseinandersetzung mit Themen wie kulturellem Konflikt, Ehre, Loyalität und dem Sinn des Lebens.
