doesn't even work
This DVD, I was really excited about, but when I put it into my DVD player it said something to the effect of: that the color format for the DVD did not match my bluray player. I've heard great things about this movie, and I respect Tom Cruise and Shogun, but this DVD did not even play.

Ein schönes, modernes Stück Ostkultur mit Tom Cruise!
Der Film "The Last Samurai" ist echt ein Muss für Fans von Geschichtsfilmen und östlicher Kampfkultur. Die Action-Kampf-Szenen könnten nicht authentischer herüberkommen, ebenso wie Tom Cruise' selbstgemachte Stunts. Darüber hinaus enthält der Film hinreißende Landschaftsaufnahmen, die für schöne, meditative Stimmung sorgen. Die japanische Kulisse wirkt überzeugend, auch wenn der Dreh vorwiegend in Neuseeland stattfand (angeblich wegen seiner Wälder, und weil der Mount Taranaki dem Fujiyama ähnelt). Nur einige wenige, aber dafür sehr bedeutungsträchtige Szenen wurden wirklich in Japan (Kyoto und Himeji) gedreht. "The Last Samurai" geht thematisch sehr stark in Richtung "Lawrence Von Arabien" (mit Peter O'Toole). Ein einzelner Soldat kämpft für eine Kultur, die mit der Seinen verfeindet ist, und bewirkt somit eine Aussöhnung Beider. Die Parallelen sind unverkennbar - nur dass dieser Film nicht, wie besagter "Lawrence", im direkten Sinn historisch ist, sondern von historischen Ereignissen inspiriert. Das tut aber dem Erlebnis keinen Abbruch. Im Gegenteil: das Aufeinandertreffen der verfeindeten Kulturen Amerikas und Japans mit den daraus resultierenden Konflikten und anfänglichen Verständigungsschwierigkeiten und die erst allmähliche Annäherung beider Seiten zueinander überhäufen den Zuschauer gleich tonnenweise mit bewegenden Momenten, die man sich am liebsten mehrmals hintereinander reinziehen möchte, wäre der Film nicht auch ohne das schon lang genug! "The Last Samurai" ist also kein Film, den man sich nur einmal anschaut und dann in der Ecke verstauben lässt; zu viel gibt es darin, was wir verstehen lernen und in seiner Wirkung bis zur Vollkommenheit auskosten wollen! Echt empfehlenswert!

A brilliantly directed, acted and scored epic.
There are a select number of films released that define the meaning of the word epic and The Last Samurai is one of those films. Tom Cruise portrays a troubled soldier who, after years drinking away the sights of battle, is asked to train any army who will march against the rising rebellion, led by the Samurai who want to stall the modernising of Japan. As he proves in films such as Minority Report, War of the Worlds and Collateral, Cruise is a brilliant actor, both in terms of action and emotion. Fellow cast members, including Timothy Spall, a brief Billy Connelly and an excellent Ken Watanabe all bring truth and talent to their roles. Edward Zwick (Blood Diamond) directs and does a perfect job of it, having an eye for sweeping, epic shots of the breathtaking landscapes, for the gritty, violent action and battle sequences and the emotive scenes. The script is brilliantly written and Cruise is given plenty of material with which to test his skills and prove them. The score, by Hans Zimmer (Pirates of the Caribbean) is epic, stirring and moving and compliments the epic scale of the film. The battles are awesomely done, with Zwick not holding back on the violence and delivering some breath snatching, gripping moments, as well as some excellent sword fights. The cinematography is among the best i have seen, the landscapes are brought vividly to the screen and the japanse architecture and countryside make this film all the more engrossing. Overall, this film is one of my favourites, it is epic and sweeping, gripping and action packed and its impossible not to be swept up in this film. A flawless, majestic film. The single disc edition is the best choice for those not bothered with extras but for fans of the film the two disc edition is loaded with special features: commentaries, numerous featurettes, interviews and deleted scenes.
