THE LAST SAMURAI

I introduce my favorite movie. It is THE LAST SAMURAI. This movie’s story is right after the Meiji Restoration in Japan. Japanese government decided to adopt western strategy to plan be modern. Also they plot to extirpate Samurai. On such situation, the government call hero of the Civil War to conduct army of government. He start to teach way of western weapons at once but the government is impatient about ugly act and neglect his advice and send army of build quickly to knock down Samurai. However inexperienced soldiers retreat because they can not counterattack. The man who continued to fight to the end with Samurai is caught by Samurai and is taken their village in deep in the mountains. He is taken prisoner but kept alive and touched his heart about life of Samurai unexpectedly because their obstinate belief remember former him. Army of government and Samurai fight again and again. Finally army of government who have modern weapons such as gun win the long battle. And they do the Meiji Restoration.

Actors who appear are big star. For example Ken Watanabe and Tom cruise. Their performance is very powerful and reality. They are very cool and lively. Their performance and this movie’s story moved me to tears. Especially I was moved the scene which last battle samurai and army of government. I knew busido. This movie tells us many important things such as way of life. So if you have ever seen this movie, you should watch it.
