About this product

Product Information

Edward Zwick directs this sumptuously designed, action-packed period epic that stars Tom Cruise as Captain Nathan Algren. Algren, a former Civil War hero, is adrift in 1870s San Francisco after the war, a lost soul struggling to stay afloat in a booze-soaked stupor. When he is recruited by the Japanese government to train the Emperor's army, he departs for the unknown shores of Japan and begins training the soldiers in American military tactics. But these skills are useless against a band of samurai rebels led by the proud warrior Katsumoto (Ken Watanabe), and Algren is easily defeated. He is taken to a remote samurai village where he learns samurai warrior codes and ways of life, developing a deep bond with Katsumoto and sharing philosophical conversations with him. Caught between the feudal culture of the ancient samurai warriors and the encroachment of modern society, Algren is forced to choose between his own culture or Katsumoto's. THE LAST SAMURAI is lavish in its dramatic period costumes and intense performances, and will thrill fans of both historical drama and action films.

Offered as NEW but what I got appears to be a repackaged USED DVD: with scratch marks on both sides of the disk and it was secure in the case, not rattling around. Also, Seller added "Make Best Offer" in the description, so I made an offer and he countered at full price. It was a good price for a NEW item, and so I paid it, but why add that if you don't negotiate, and on top of that send out scratched up merchandise. All-in-all a bad experience that i will not do again. I think disk will play...

This experience was disappointing. If the seller does not want to field offers for an item, then don't add "Make Best Offer" in the description. Offers were answered with the seller stating they wanted listing price. We are talking about $0.62. I bought it because I don't play games. When The DVD is delivered I open it to find the packing for the DVD is a mess. I was promised good condition. Tape all over the box, looks like it was used for a desk. Part of the front is cut out. Do not recommend.

Well Worth The Time, Notable Lesson Learned As Well!
The Last Samurai embodies the true essences of two cultures who come together for power, control, and yes, War. Tom Cruise played his role quite well. He gave the role his own little twist of credibility. Even though he had struggled with alcohol during the first parts of the film, it seemed to bring out a deeper, darker side of him, yet making him appear mortal and weaker than his captors. This film portrays white men in a negative light. Their brutality and greed for money are most definitely present in the film. Algren (Tom Cruise) is firstly fighting to get paid until the Samurai win him over with their more honorable ideals. Samurai heroes act out of honor and dutiful service whereas western heroes are cold and detached and could care less about saving anyone until someone offers ...

Algren (Tom Cruise) is firstly fighting to get paid until the Samurai win him over with their more honorable ideals. Samurai heroes act out of honor and dutiful service whereas western heroes are cold and detached and could care less about saving anyone until someone offers them a bounty. This film recognized both western and Japanese genres' similarities and differences and incorporated them together. While it's probably a little convenient and hard to stomach that the lone white man would be the last man standing, if you look at how the cultures differ it's a little easier to accept. If a Samurai loses in battle, he has to take his own life. So, they're all essentially fighting to the death. Algren doesn't share the disgraced suicide belief, so when he knows he's beaten, he's more likely to surrender. because he has allies on the opposing side.

The Last Samurai DVD
You honor me by reading this. Samurai and old school kung-fu movies are, at their core, Japanese westerns (or maybe I should say our westerns are American Samurai and kung-fu movies or whatever). The greatest samuari movie I've ever seen is "Seven Samurai," which was the inspiration for "The Magnificent Seven." In that legendary movie, there is a scene that has alway stood out to me as the defining saddness of the samurai. The greatest swordsman of the seven, a silent and brooding man, is slicing through the raiders that are attacking the villiage left and right. They are no match for him or his sword. But just as you think he is going to singlehandedly win this fight, his enemies fire off a pistol that fatally wounds him. As he staggers to his death, he takes a ... You honor me by reading this.

The greatest samuari movie I've ever seen is "Seven Samurai," which was the inspiration for "The Magnificent Seven." In that legendary movie, there is a scene that has alway stood out to me as the defining saddness of the samurai. The greatest swordsman of the seven, a silent and brooding man, is slicing through the raiders that are attacking the villiage left and right. They are no match for him or his sword. But just as you think he is going to singlehandedly win this fight, his enemies fire off a pistol that fatally wounds him. As he staggers to his death, he takes a last look as his sword and disgusted, he throws it away from him and dies. No matter how great he is with his old weapons, he cannot beat a bullet. That's what I thought about while I watched "The Last Samurai." Capt. Nathan Algren (Tom Cruise) is a defeated man. Though he has never lost in battle and is considered a hero, massacring Indian villages (including women and children) for General Custer has robbed him of his soul. When we first see him, he's so self loathing that he only drinks himself into a stupor while trying to shill Winchester rifles in San Francisco. It is here he gets an offer to do the only thing he believes he's any good at: go back into service, only this time to train troops in Japan the art of Western warfare (complete with rifles and artillary), so they can become a more modern civilization and also defeat the remaining samurai that have fought like rebels to the change. Of course, Japan's current government is wrought with dity politicians and an Emporer too scared to stand up to them. So, he goes to train an army of farmers and fishermen how to use Western guns and ammo when the order comes in for Algren to lead his forces into battle with Katsumoto (Oscar nominated Ken Watanabe), the leader of last remaining band of Samurai. Algren, knowing his forces are too inexperienced to handle a group who's whole lives are dedicated to battle, tries to resist but is outranked. It is at this battle that he is taken captive by Katsumoto, who spares Algren's life in order to know his enemy better. This all leads to Algren learning the disciplined ways of the Samurai and learing to stand and fight with the very people he came to fight. When this movie originally came out, I thought it sounded like "Dances With Samurai." And it does have a bit of that feel to it. Many scenes are played out without much dialogue at all as Algren begins to adopt the philosophies and dogma of the samurai. However, the movie comes into it's own very nicely and even the thought of Cruise as the 5'6 warrior melts out of your mind. Even with the film being over 2 1/2 hours, I never felt like things were dragging at all - although I do admit I had the luxury of watching this at home rather than on the big screen. There are also some elements to "Bravehart" during the climatic battle scenes, but they don't drag the movie down for too many unoriginal moments to spoil things. Cruise is solid, as he always is. The thing about Cruise is that he is a very good character actor trapped in a Hollywood Star body. The real standout is Watanabe, who's quiet charisma comes out in buckets. That's not to say he chews up the scenery - he just simply has such presence on screen that you are riveted every time he shows up. It's a shame he didn't take home the Oscar.

Beautiful period piece with heart and spirit!
This film is set in the 1870's and stars Tom Cruise as Captain Nathan Algren. Algren was a civil war hero and is recently returned from the campaign against the Indians. He's still haunted by what he's seen, and what he's done. Algren, who has become an alcoholic in an attempt to cope, is recruited by the Japanese government to train the Emperor's army. Japan at this time is struggling with its own identity as it attempts to shed its feudal image and become a modern power. Algren must train a group of soldiers to fight the Samurai who for decades protected Japan but are now perceived as standing in the way of progress. Cruise soon leads his soldiers in battle against the Samurai leader, Katsumoto, who is played by Ken Watanabe. After his defeat Algren (Cruise) ...

Cruise soon leads his soldiers in battle against the Samurai leader, Katsumoto, who is played by Ken Watanabe. After his defeat Algren (Cruise) is taken to Katsumoto's village where he eventually learns the Samurai's codes and ways of life and develops a bond with Katsumoto. Eventually a new Imperial Army is formed and Algren must choose sides for the final epic battle. Edward Zwick directs this film and presents us with a period epic reminiscent of some of Hollywood finest movies. The film has heart and spirit and the plot draws you in. Even down to the smallest detail the film is true to the time period and creates an atmosphere in which you really believe these people are living in the 1870's. Everything including the costumes, armor, weapons, etc are authentic and an unbelievable amount of research went into creating this movie as can be seen in the dvd extras (more on that later). The cinematography is stunning and the battle scenes are incredible. These battle scenes are quite graphic and bloody, note the 'R' rating, so if that's something you don't enjoy this movie may not be for you. The actor's performances were excellent. This is probably Tom Cruise's best performance and he shines as the soldier with a troubled past trying to regain his honor. The best performance in the movie, however, belongs to Ken Watanabe. His performance as the Samurai leader fighting for his country, and his emperor, and watching as his way of life dies, was nothing short of moving. You also can't forget about the dvd extras, and there are some good ones. Included is the History Channel documentary "History vs Hollywood", the director's video journal, interviews with the actors including Tom Cruise, deleted scenes, production and weapon designs and so much more. Overall The Last Samurai is a beautiful and visually stunning film and is the best movie that's been released in years.

The Last Samurai
I have seen this movie quite a few times and every time I watch it I get a little bit more out of it. It is a long movie and starts a little slow but it is definitely worth waiting it out and taking the time to see a LONG movie. Tom Cruise plays an excellent part and is, in my books, totally different from his Mission Impossible movie roles. But you will not be disappointed with this one. The compassion he shows on the screen is something to see and makes you love his character for all the right reasons. This movie protrays the heart of a Samurai and gives a wonderful example of the dedication Samurai's give to their beliefs of life. I give this movie a thumbs up and recommend it to all. There is some violence that may not be suited for some children. One of the nice parts about this movie ...

There is some violence that may not be suited for some children. One of the nice parts about this movie is that there isn't a "language" problem, which sometimes is hard to find anymore. I don't honestly believe there was any offensive language throughout the entire movie! It is sad sometimes when a movie has to use bad language to feel that it supports the plot, although some do, I admit! This is a feel good movie when it ends and I don't think you would be disappointed if you had doubts about the movie and just took a chance. You will be pleased with how good the movie was produced and how well it plays out. This isn't a karate type movie. It shows the life a Samurai lives but it has a good plot and it will be a movie you want to see more than once! I did and wanted it for my private collection. It isn't a "guy flick" that women won't like. It has a human element to it that all audiances will enjoy!
