The beloved Hollywood star this time teams up with director Edward Zwick to portray US army soldier Nathan Algren who is pursuaded into becoming the trainer of the Japanese Royal Army in order to accustom them to modern arms. During his mission he has to confront rebelling samurais who refuse to abandon their life-long traditions and way of life. Wounded and captured by the opposite party, Algren gradually learns to understand and respect the samurais' code of honor …

Product Information


導演:艾活史域
Director: Edward Zwick

  武士以忠誠為生存信念,不惜為此而壯烈犧牲,面對時代改革所引申的權力鬥爭,他們可不是孤軍作戰。
  尼敦艾格林上尉(湯告魯斯飾)是內戰時代的一位陸軍上尉,被委派往日本打擊悠遠流長的傳統武士道,最後卻反被這股精神感化,飾演武士首領森勝元的渡邊謙(金像獎提名),在武士道存亡之間殘存,他的命運與這名美國上尉互相交纏。由艾活史域(美國影評人協會最佳導演)執導的史詩式故事,將現代日本的誕生以感性一面盡現銀幕。
  
  The Samurai live by a code of honor. Now they must also die for it. But they're not alone in their struggle against the forces that would forever change them.
  Tom Cruise plays civil War hero Capt. Nathan Algren, who comes to Japan to fight the Samurai and ends up pledging himself to their cause. Ken Watanabe (Academy Award nominee) plays Katsumoto, a Samurai leader facing a vanishing way of life, whose destiny becomes intertwined with that of the American captain. Edward Zwick (Winner of the National Board of Review's Best Director Award) directs this sweeping and emotional epic tale of the birth of modern Japan.

one of my favorites... Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
When I first saw the movie, I was really hooked. This movie is the reason why I love Japan. It literally opened my eyes and heart to Japan. Pretty soon I was looking up everything I could think of about Japan. Mostly anime lol. I loved the ending. The battle scene was very depressing but it was great. I especially loved all the scenes with Taka (Koyuki) and Nathan Algren. At first she was very ashamed having him in her house, but her feelings for him changed. It was soooo romantic!! Great movie! ^_^

Wow Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
I saw the trailers for this movie, and I thought it was going to be stupid. But after actually watching the movie, I was moved by the determination Tom Cruise displayed as Captain Algren. It really wowed me, especially the last battle that took place. I was down to tears. You must get this movie!!

TWO THUMBS UP! Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
how amazing it is to see how brave the samurai's are. i love to watch this every now and then cause it touched my heart esp that time when Tom Cruise started to live like a samurai and when he embraces the life of a samurai. from gun to sword..sword vs gun? how can you ever survive such thing in a battle? it is in your heart. you will learn what loyalty, self-respect and respect for enemies is when you watch this movie. really great, very amazing, very touching! what more can i say, TWO THUMBS UP!!!

Excellent! Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
A must see! One of the best war movies I've seen in a very long time, and I'm a girl and girls don't usually like watching war movies, but I would love to watch this one again! I love Ken Watanabe! I think they needed to find a taller american in the movie, Tom Cruise was very short compared to Ken! :-p
