BEST BOKKEN FIGHTING - Tom Cruise vs Hiroyuki Sanada - The Last Samurai

[TheRich]

I love everything Hiroyuki is in! Man is an absolutely amazing actor and so underrated.

He sells that hard ass warrior so well I picture him at home with a wooden sword just beating his kids asses growing up! Lol!

The last Samurai is one of those movies which you can watch more than 10 times but still feel marvellous everytime you watch it.

Loved and miss this era of film making.. the patriot, brave heart, gladiator, the last samurai, etc…

Hiriyuki pretty much always plays the same character, but never gets old playing it.. Even gets better sometimes. My favorite Japanese actor by far..

[dreglasgow]

Sanada is a massively underrated performer deserves more roles

[juanlameiro]

This is one of the best movies I have ever seen .The way you blend into another Culture is with Respect .
A Cinematographic Jewel !

It is simply the best movie Tom Cruise ever made or ever will make. There were no heroes, just men fighting for a way of life.

[J.Lee-xvwb]

Hiroyuki Sanada is the best sword fighter ever in movies and in real life. Jackie Chan himself said there very few men as good as him.

Hate the argument that this movie was about a white savior. As an Asian, I love this movie. As a man with alcoholism and dark inner demons and trauma, he doesnt save the samurai. The culture and samurai way saved HIM

[Amir-persian]

I have seen this movie more than 20 times. I am a lover of Japanese history and a fan of Mr. Sanada. From Iran❤🇮🇷❤🇯🇵

And now he plays Lord Toranaga in FX Shogun

[softballevalex]

Coming here after watching Shogun finale, and i gotta tell you, it is literally like watching deleted scenes that didn't make the cut.
Hiroyuki Sanada is a MASTER class actor. He can just step on screen and you're instantly transported through time.
Looking forward to more movies/shows of him!!❤❤

That head nod from Ujio is so satisfying. It gives me goosebumps everytime.

[Fenril]

Top 2 or 3 of my all time favorite movie. Lived in Okinawa, Japan while in the Marines in 76-77. Best times of my life. If you get a chance to go to Japan, you will never forget it.

[SarahWilder]

When I first watched this film all those years ago, it was Sanada that I was mesmerised by. He has this masterful screen presence that draws you in.

[ledhed]

That’s OK, Ujio ended up as the manager of the Osaka Continental.

真田さん格好良くて品性がある。
流石日本舞踊をしているだけの事は有りますね。

[MarcusVinicius-vlgs]

I see a lot of comments praising the actors, especially Tom Cruise. Accepted.
But with all due respect, this movie wouldn't be what it is and what it was without this soundtrack by Hans Zimmer, this soundtrack is so good it's inexplicable. This soundtrack with this movie is the icing on the cake.

I feel really good listening to this song after a stressful day. It's very comforting.

[ダン吉-ui]

真田さんが出てくると場面の雰囲気がガラッと変わる。
ラストサムライは真田さんの印象が本当に強いんです。

I love the way in the end, Ujio (Sanada) gives Nathan Algren (Cruise) a "slight" nod. He still doesn't like Algren at all, but gives a small amount of respect. Algren then takes his time and returns a more formal bow, almost to say "thanks" instead of "thank you very much." But his bow in return towards Ujio is only slightly more respectful. The tension between these 2 characters is prevalent during the entire movie, ...even at the end, just before the final battle, Ujio approves of Algren's red armor, but just "nods" him towards Katsumoto. If they became best buds, would have destroyed that tension. Very good directing by Edward Zwick.
