The Last Samurai Download Torrent-----------------------------------------DOWNLOAD: http://urllio.com/r19ds -----------------------------------------An American military advisor embraces the Samurai culture he was hired to destroy after he is captured in battle.Set in Japan during the 1870s, The Last Samurai tells the story of Capt. Nathan Algren (Tom Cruise), a respected American military officer hired by the Emperor of Japan to train the country's first army in the art of modern warfare. As the Emperor attempts to eradicate the ancient Imperial Samurai warriors in preparation for more Westernized and trade-friendly government policies, Algren finds himself unexpectedly impressed and influenced by his encounters with the Samurai, which places him at the center of a struggle between two eras and two worlds, with only his own sense of honor to guide him.I will start by saying i am a fan of Japanese movies, at least in this period of my life. I loved this movie and i felt sad it ended, which means a lot, considering the fact that i get bored really quick. "The Last Samurai" made me feel, and understand there are so many things in life that have to be lived to the full, even if i may sound like a miss "whatever" candidate. The character played by Ken Watanabe seems so real, and it makes you wonder about the people you know. For example i asked myself: Do i know great characters like Katsumoto? Have i ever met anyone so great? And for me, a movie that makes you wonder about your life, has to be a good one.This is one of the best war movies i've ever seen. It's great to see such great nature of Japan. It's a fantastic movie, which almost makes you cry. Tom Cruise is a great actor and this is a lot better than i expected...You can see him managing to do all those things he wasn't able to do before. Teaching Japanese, fighting etc. This movie is very different from all those other war movies out there. It's not cool to just see 10000 warriors coming and blowing their heads of, it's a lot better with old guns and Japanese fighting. This is a movie for everyone.
An awesome script. Awesome acting. And awesome fight.The least one can say for this costume action flick is that it hits bottom immediately.Captain Nathan Algren (Tom Cruise), a disillusioned American war hero who fought alongside General George Custer at the Battle of the Little Bighorn, is hired to train the Emperor of Japan's troops to use firearms against an uprising of Imperial warriors led by the "last samurai" leader Katsumoto Morito (Ken Watanabe). After being captured, nursed back to health, and trained to fight like a samurai, Algren must decide just whose side he is on. The Last Samurai is based on a screenplay by American screenwriter John Logan, filmmaker Edward Zwick (who also directed and co-produced the movie), and co-producer Marshall Herskovitz. The film was inspired by an earlier film, also titled The Last Samurai (1988) (1991), although the stories are not related to each other. The movie begins in 1876 and spans one year of time. Although no attempt at historical accuracy is made, the story was inspired by several real events. The basic story, that of a samurai rebellion against the Imperial Japanese government, was inspired by the 1877 Satsuma Rebellion during which samurai in the Satsuma domain in Tokugawa Japan revolted against the new Meiji government. Algren's involvement was inspired by stories of Jules Brunet, a French army captain who fought alongside the Tokugawas in the earlier Boshin War [1868-1869]. Katsumoto spared Algren partly because of his fighting skill but also because he had seen in a vision the crouching tiger that Algren displayed on the banner hanging from his spear. Sake or saké (pronounced "sah-key") is a type of rice-based alcoholic beverage of Japanese origin. Sometimes referred to as "rice wine", sake is actually brewed more like a beer and has a higher alcohol content (like from 18% to 20%) than mirin (sweet rice wine). Traditional sake is served at a temperature of 98.4°F. Capt. Algren was a veteran of the US Army's famed 7th Cavalry during both the civil war (1861-1865) and the Indian wars in the western territories after the war. As an experienced cavalry officer, he was proficient with using firearms and sabers while mounted on horseback though did not take part in the infamous Battle of The Little Bighorn of 4 July 1876 due to his assignment to train the emperor's army in Japan in 1876. Therefore, having been invited by the emperor to Japan basically kept Algren out of the battle, saving his life so to speak. Although firearms had been in use centuries earlier in Japan, they were later rejected as dishonorable. By the early 19th century, the gunsmith's art had fallen into disuse. However, both sides did use firearms in the Boshin War and the Satsuma Rebellion. There are no accounts of ninjas being used by the Meiji government during the Satsuma Rebellion. In fact, it is highly unlikely if they even existed by 1877. The last known use of ninjas in warfare was during the Shimabara Rebellion [1637-1638] during the Edo period, which was 240 years before the Satsuma Rebellion took place. The samurai do well in the first round of the battle but, when the second and third regiments come, they are no match for the Gatling guns. The entire Samurai army is destroyed. Mortally wounded, Katsumoto asks Algren to help him die with honor, so Algren assists him with performing seppuku. At the death of Katsumoto, the entire Imperial army fall to their knees and bow before the fallen samurai. Only Algren survives. Later, as the Emperor (Shichinosuke Nakamura) is about to sign the treaty between the Americans and the Japanese, a badly-injured Algren appears before the court and offers Katsumoto's sword to the Emperor in hopes that he will remember all that his ancestors have done. The Emperor accepts the sword and rules that this treaty is not in the best interest of his people. When Omura (Masato Harada) protests, the Emperor informs him that he has decided to confiscate Omura's family's assets and make of them a gift to the people. He offers Katsuomoto's sword to Omura should he not be able to live with the disgrace, but Omura bows and backs away. The final scenes show Algren returning to Katsumoto's village and to Taka (Koyuki) and her sons. In a voiceover, Simon Graham (Timothy Spall) says: And so the days of the samurai had ended. Nations, like men, it is sometimes said, have their own destiny. As to the American captain, no one knows what became of him. Some say he died of his wounds, others that he returned to his own country, but I like to think he may have, at least, found some small measure of peace that we all seek and few of us ever find. Although he's been taught some Samurai swordplay, Algren is not Samurai. There is some confusion among viewers because of the fact that the word "samurai" is both a singular word and a plural word. In the singular, samurai can refer to a specific individual, as "Katsumoto is a Samurai." In the plural, samurai can refer to Samurai warriors in the collective, as "Katsumoto is Samurai" or "Katsumoto's Samurai." Therefore, it can be argued that the "Last Samurai" can refer either to Katsumoto himself, to his Samurai army, or to the last of the real Japanese Samurai. In the bonus section on the DVD, the director explains that the title refers to the Samurai as a race or class of people. The whole movie, in fact, is based on the end of the Samurai culture and the emergence of a new way of life in Japan, based on western ideals. The Last Samurai is often compared to Dances with Wolves (1990) (1990) and A Man Called Horse (1970) (1970) for the storyline, although both of these two movies deal with Native American Indians, not Japanese samurai. If it's similar samurai movies you want, try the TV miniseries Shogun (1980) (1980) or Akira Kurosawa's Shichinin no samurai (1954) (Seven Samurai) (1954). The classic epic Lawrence of Arabia (1962) (1962) is another film with a story about East meeting West, a westerner bonding with a group of "natives" that he joins up with, and is critical of westernization becoming intrusive to foreign societies/cultures. a5c7b9f00b http://www.ggf.lt/en/news/view/id/273711 http://sfchsjournalism.ning.com/profiles/blogs/no-joke-survival-protection-movie-download-in-mp4 http://social-shopping.ning.com/profiles/blogs/puzzle-negro-tamil-dubbed-movie-free-download http://ashbyfamilyny.ning.com/profiles/blogs/spider-man-into-the-spider-verse-720p https://www.causes.com/posts/4944467 http://theworld.guildwork.com/forum/threads/5ba0d0ec002aa82e15ab4aa1-the-third-bandit-malayalam-full-movie-free-download http://stemcellnetwork.ning.com/profiles/blogs/heroes-in-hindi-movie-download http://dayviews.com/crisinal/526819727/ http://www.onfeetnation.com/profiles/blogs/the-darkest-hour-movie-in-hindi-dubbed-download http://www.new.animalfinder.lt/en/news/view/id/273710
