This is easily one of my top 5 favorite movies ever. I'm glad you enjoyed it Major!
The guy you are thinking about is Peter Petigrew from Harry Potter and yes it is the same actor.
Algren was having the DTs, alcohol withdrawal and can be fatal if it's severe enough.
The three hundred held off an army of a million Persians.
32:58, with his last breath Bob took one with him. His ancestors just nodded and said "Come on home. You did us proud"
"Beware the old man in a profession where most die young."
One of my favorite movies ever. What a masterpiece
I was just looking for something to watch and this just popped up. Lets go Major
TC best movie imo. This film is just a masterpiece from the acting to the score.
The actor u said was in John Wick is Hiroyuki Sanada he's been in a bunch of movies he is a master sword man in real life, there's a new show coming out in January called SHOGUN it's a remake from 1980 great movie but the new show coming out looks awesome and it's being named one of the best shows in 2024
One of the best acting performance from Tom Cruise🙂
The perfect blossom is a rare find. One could spend their entire like searching for one, and it would not be a wasted life.
Perfect... They are all perfect...
For some reason ‘Damn, didn’t bring the strap’ in the street fight sent me aha
One of my favourite films this! Great reaction.
One of my favorite movies of TC. So happy you enjoyed it. Fabulous all the way. See ya next time Major.
It's loosely based on a true story, but i think it was a French soldier who joined up with the samurai rather than an American
Tom Cruise plays the same guy in every movie. He’s really good at it lol.
An exceptional individual in a particular occupation who can’t move to the next level. So he encounters a setback that rocks his confidence. He then is required to learn from a mentor who gives his insights for moving forward.
Tony Goldwyn's character Colonel Bagley definitely underestimated what trained swordsmen can do even against guns. Swords and knifes are ancient weapons but to this day there are still moderns armies that teach their soldiers how to fight with them.
Side note, a few years ago, I started watching the show Forged in Fire. After you see what a sword or a big blade can do to a deer or pig carcass, you definitely will respect the power of swords
He's never encountered or seen a samurai before, so he's almost forgiven for not taking them seriously. You have to see it to know. You see how fascinated alrgren was with it all, perhaps if it was the Colonel instead, he might have left with a change in heart, but I doubt it. Those flashbacks made it seem like the col. Took that village just to do it. Stealing power they call it, in Bushido shoshinso. Typically a thief is the lowest of lows but many considered the power stealer to be the lowest, and the overlord, or employer is also blamed for allowing this to happen
When movies make grown ass men cry you just know how good they are… no words needed
The Mongols tried to invade Japan twice.
But both times, most of the fleet was destroyed by a freak Hurricane.
Both times. Idk what that says, guess some spirits were protecting Japan at that time.
You’ll want to check out the Hulu series Shogun coming out in Feb(?). The novel’s awesome and the 80s miniseries was awesome. The new one should be incredible, too.
Man I have no clue how I missed this video being up for a whole month without coming check it out. Let's go
It is :Peter Pettigrew AKA Wormtail from HP films !!!
Ujio was teaching you the way of the Japanese sword? Yes indeed.
17:00 understanding that he killed her husband on the battlefield and that he did it with no tricks and with honor. He wasn't like the Colonel taking pleasure in killing innocents. They are very enlightened. I hate that they had a bad patch in thier history. Letting go our grudges is the most grown up thing you can do. I've held many grudges for years and now I feel free from them making me a prisoner of my own mind.
The 2 Toms always make bangers ( Cruise n Hanks). Out of all his movies, there are so many great ones, this one is my favorite, maybe because i really like the Japanese culture or maybe the whole story but anyways. There's another great movie, with Ken Watanabe, guy who played Katsumoto he's such a good actor btw, it's called 'Memoirs of a Geisha'.
This is only the 2nd reaction that i watch from you but i have enjoyed both a lot. Already subscribed and have quite a few of my favorite movies n your reactions to them lined up.
This is such a beautiful movie and Tom Cruise really is a great actor. How exciting that there are so many of his movies for you to watch: Oblivion; Legend; A Few Good Men; Interview With the Vampire; Minority Report; Eyes Wide Shut; Magnolia; Collateral; The Firm; Tropic Thunder; War of the Worlds; all the Mission Impossible movies, a couple Jack Reacher movies...Happy watching. ✌🏽
37:20, the Emperor got some bass in his voice after all!!
The scene were he was being beat under the rain, has many meanings to Algren himself,
1- he wanted to be beaten up for what he has done by killing innocents before in the war with The Natives.
2- he wanted to be beaten up for his desire to live however he wished to die every time he was in a battle.
3- he wanted to get beaten so the village anger of him would reduce a bit and respect him for his ability of fighting and not giving up.
that scene were was on of the best scenes in the movies which show us how Algren thinks and how he want to get to the redemption that he seeks.
A Masterpiece, & one of Tom cruise's best movies. Still hoping to see you do Jeepers Creepers 2 soon also ❤️ 🎄
I got you fam I didn't forget about you
I love this movie, it's one of my all time favorites. But it is important to know it is "inspired" by history. The Samurai rebellion was not about honor but about the warrior class trying to maintain its power and position in Japan society. Feudal Japan was governed by a strict caste system that had the warrior at the top. They had all the power and wealth with constant warring between about 2 dozen clans.
Once foreigners were allowed on Japan, the Emperor learned what the rest of the world had in the way of technology and military power he quickly decided to unify the military forces of Japan under his banner. This would end the feudal era and begin the Empire of Japan, reducing the samurai from respected warrior to just foot soldiers. During the rebellion the samurai used guns and other modern weapons.
To be fair, the Mongols got completely obliterated by the ocean before even making it to japan
The image of how you're precieved by others is far more important than your life. Even the lowest samurai have had their names permanently recorded in the books for his heroic deeds on the field, smd many high ranking samurai who did nothing spectacular are not recorded and soon forgotten
Its definitely Peter Pedigrew from Harry Potter. He was Rons rat
If you want to keep going on the Tom cruise film train, you have to watch Collateral (2004) with Jamie foxx. For the time, it was a bit of a change for him in terms of the usual roles he played.
There is more mention of Custard in the movie We Were Solders
Watch “A Few Good Men”.
One of the best movie music score
beautiful man, appreciate your reaction enjoyed watching it
Thank you Johnny
Major, you should research a man named Yasuke (Samurai). It is a very crazy story that you might enjoy, that's right Major OH-IO!
I’d heard another major part of why the Mongols could never take Japan also had to do with the surrounding oceans and what the Japanese called the Dragon’s Triangle. They couldn’t overwhelm the island with sheer numbers because they had to sail there. The warriors who made it without drowning wouldn’t be a match without the vast numbers they relied on. Straight 300 vibes.
I’m like …. Be ready to be mad at seeing Tom in that red samurai suit lol😅
Still one of the best movies, Samurai are my favourite warriors of all time🙏 they were unmatched for years
11:02 “Where have I seen this dude from?” Just wondering, are you referring to the actor playing Katsumoto Moritsugu? It’s Ken Watanabe. He got an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor for this movie. You previously reacted to Inception, where he was Mr. Saito, if that helps.
Yes thank you I knew I seen him before as I watching this again for the edit I started to look him up again
@@MajorReacts Glad to help. 👍
it is the dude from Harry Peter Pettigrew Ron's Rat
If you have an interest in Japan, you would love a series called Japanology, as well as the spinoffs.
So glad this for chosen this is one of my favorite movie
BILLY CONNELLY IS ONE OF THE WORLDS BEST STORYTELLER COMEDIANS.
YOU GOTTA WATCH BOONDOCK SAINT 1+2, WILLEM DAFOE IS SOMETHING ELSE.
A Few Good Men...one of his best
Wasn't a huge dvd guy, but you bet your ass i got this the day it released bc this its just a masterclass in film making : D
4:57, this is loosely based upon a real Samurai rebellion during this time. But Algren's character is fictional.
Looking forward to this reaction.
Love this movie!
Great movie ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
At this point it’s time for the Mission Impossible movies! And for a non Tom Cruise movie….. Glory
Custer. We can discuss whether he was a great or stupid leader later.All I'll say for now is he led his troops of a few hundred against thousands of Indians and they were slaughtered by the natives
Lots of westerns movies about this.
I wish it made you speechless from the start of the movie😅
This movie gets a shit rap for the title and the implication that a white guy is "the last of the Samurai" and that it follows the 'white savior' stereotype of a lot of movie (and admittedly there are a lot of terrible movies that follow that trope), but it's a truly incredible masterpiece of cinema. The culture clash and the pain that Algren feels from his involvement in the war against Indigenous people in his own country work to make his character so deep and understandable. The way you slowly understand his self hatred, pain and the way he redeems himself by realizing that everything he fought for before was evil and a lie is so powerful. It's hard not to tear up at so many sequences in this movie when you realize this was what Imperialism did to so many unique and interesting cultures all over the world, all just to make a quick buck, is disgusting and shameful (and that's even with the admission that the Samurai were in their own way problematic to the peasantry of Japan). If we lived a just world all the people involved in that period, the exploitation, the destruction, and the mass murder would have been the ones that committed seppuku for what they did to the world we were robbed of by the extermination of the richness that existed all over the world.
I understand you completely. However it wasnt like he murdered the husband, he was defending himself, and to be honest, squaring up with a soilder who cannot even stand up was definitely not what he was taught growing up.
She kissed him because she was grateful not because of something romantic and Hans Zimmer's music is doing job as always
Yes, all my female friends kiss me on the lips when their “grateful”
@@gabnash5998 she is not his friend she wife of general he killed
Did you see hateful 8 Quinton tartine movie
I have not if it's a banger we gotta check it out
It is you'll like it
I don’t buy the main character. I really doubt a soldier who served under Custer would call him a murderer, but a screenwriter from a hundred years later would, and that’s who is speaking.
I've always wanted to like this movie but I can't get over the "Great White Hope" aspect. Dances with Wolves, Avatar, Great Wall, and so on. I mean in history it's happened from time to time like Nazis saving hundreds of Chinese in the Rape of Nanking. When a Nazi is like "Damn that's brutal", you know it's messed up. But this movie does quite a disservice to samurai honor I feel. But Manifest Destiny...always go west in a round world...
I don’t think Tom Cruises is the saviour of this movie, the samurai saved him from himself and he learned from them. All he offers is a battle plan and giving the emperor Katsumotos own words at the end. Even breaking out Katsumoto was because of (for lack of knowing his name!) the hard bastard turning up with everyone.
Katsumoto was the last samurai, and the samurai saved Tom Cruise. He’s more our ‘spectator’ through the movie.
I’m not saying that’s right of course, everyone sees movies differently! It’s just my two cents and how I see it, it might help you get over that humour for it!
✌️🎅❤️
your not to far away based on a true story, not so much the film, but history, Im from the UK, where we invavded and colonised 60% of the world, like you see here in the movie, trying to instal western values, clothes railways, some of these like in this move were for trade deals, that sort of thing
Check out the movie "Collateral". It's another top tier Tom Cruise film. And he isn't the usual character that he's known to play.
He could transfigure into a rat
Tomato. Could you be ANYMORE disrespectful?
Jerry maguire
Custer is trash
What tom cruise said about him in that scene was true
this is a beautiful movie. I watched probably too many times. Love the Japanese culture explained in detail. feedback: your reaction was almost perfect. Your laughter through the fights felt out of place. Not sure if you were trying to fill some reaction time. Just watching and enjoying the choreography of the fight (Tom trained for 6 months for that big fight against so many people) should be enough on a reaction.
Great movie but getting Tom cruise to play a black samurai was crazy even for Hollywood
