About this product

Product Information

Yojira Takita's excellent 2003 samurai epic takes place in Meiji-era Japan, when the few remaining samurai were forced to choose sides and fight for either the Emperor or the Tokugawa Shogunate (a time period familiar to American audiences from THE LAST SAMURAI, but explored with more complexity and nuance here). Kiichi Nakai stars as Kanichiro Yoshimura, a principled Bushido warrior whose difficult decisions and complicated path are skillfully revealed through flashback.

  • " Shinsengumi " at tale of honor, dedication and betrayal.

    " When the Last Sword is Drawn " is an outstanding piece of cinema and storytelling achievement, the characters are perfectly drawn and portrayed, the role of the " Shinsengumi " in thepower struggles at the end of the Tokogawa period is clearly defined . . . HOWEVER . . . For Western audiences not intimately familiar with the story of the " Shinsengumi " and their role in the history of Japan, I would first suggest watching the movie" Shinsegumi " with Toshiro Mifune et al. (1969 ) to first familiarize themselves with the story and the major players in this epic drama.

  • Quirky, non-traditional, and absolutely delightful story!

    This is an amazing, unusual, humanistic story of a quirky, thoughtful small-town samurai who is struggling to support his family. It's NOT a traditional hack-and-slash samurai movie, it's much more about the person and his very difficult journey. I absolutely love this movie!

  • Better than The last samurai.

    Way better than The last samurai, better than Shogun. More realistic, great actors. Wonderful storyline. A must see!!!
