Nathan Algren is an American hired to instruct the Japanese army in the ways of modern warfare, which finds him learning to respect the samurai and the honorable principles that rule them. Pressed to destroy the samurai's way of life in the name of modernization and open trade, Algren decides to become an ultimate warrior himself and to fight for their right to exist.
Editor's Verdict
"The movie, 'The Last Samurai,' is a historical action/war drama entirely focused on 19th-century Japanese culture and conflict. The only noted connection is a 'Holiday Release,' which does not contribute to the narrative content. All core classification criteria score as 'None.'"
