It is the perfect line, and the best line (for me personally) in any movie. You hit it on the head... The prolific realization that he was searching for perfection, but perfection was always surrounding him already waiting to be found. An even deeper meaning to this line is he saw the blossoms as his own life, never believing he himself was perfect, and strived for a stronger meaning of his life. When his life was over, only then did he realize that he was perfect with the people he interacted with, with his mentorship, following his faith and ideals, serving his Emperor honorably, and carrying the way of tradition (the Samurai) down its inevitable path.

They spend their life looking for a good reason to die, and Katsumoto dreams of what the perfect way to die would be. In the end, dying for something he believes in, he realizes that all deaths of a samurai are perfect, because they die for a belief that is true in their heart. Just as all the cherry blossoms are perfect, so to are the deaths of the samurai.

It's a wonderful movie but the real history it's based on is quite different for instance Algren is based off a Frenchman, Katsumoto in real life never shied away from firearms or claimed them to be "dishonourable" he was a good commander and tactician he understood how useful they could be like all Samurai did also I'm fairly certain Katsumoto surrvived the battle this is just Hollywood pushing their romanticised view of the Samurai same goes for the Ninjas in real life they never existed they were just rebels who grew tired of the Samurai's oppression towards the normal people they never wore black or just act like how Ninjas are depicted. Despite all the nitpicking and the historic inaccuracies this film deserves to go down in movie history as an absolute masterpiece even the Japanese who know their fudel history very said the same it doesn't reflect the real history but it gets alot right kinda and it just a beautiful movie.

Him: "He is angry because I killed his father" Her: "He is angry because he fears that he might lose you too". Don't know why for some reason this really got to me. I watched this movie today. When Tom Cruise comes walking wearing the Samuri armor and the on the other seems all offended and it looks like he's going to confront him but then they look at each other and dude adjusts his armor for him and they just nod to each other. Respect. It's these little moments that make the movie work. When she is very slowly helping him but that suit of armor on but then she stops and she puts her head on his shoulders. It's just understood why she's doing this. It's just beautiful. "I will miss our...conversations". So incredible.

The issue was that Takamori (who Kastumoto is based on) was opposing more than that. He wanted to have the samurai and the Shogunate returned to power and didn't want the disassembly of the feudal system they had. Until the Meiji Restoration, the Shogunate's had the bulk of the power while the Emperor was little more than a figurehead. Takamori survived the battle the movie shows, joins the government and then resigns in protest after attaining the rank of military commander of Nippon. Then years later he was involved in another rebellion against the Emperor and was wounded and took his own life. The person Algren is based on was French and survived the battle (that Takamori also survived) and fled back to France. But again, this wasn't about just preserving culture and tradition, it was about getting back power.

Another favorite moment is when the samurai have fallen, and the Japanese soldiers get down and kneel in respect. And finally, what a fantastic score by Hans Zimmer!

Great reaction Ames like always, love this movie its one of my favourites. When Katsumoto says "Perfect" and the tear rolls off his cheek. That is one of the most perfectly shot scenes I have seen. Many people think that the character of Tom Cruise is the Last Samurai, that is wrong. Contrary to popular conception, the title of the film does not refer to Nathan Algren, or even Katsumoto, as the Last Samurai. The word "Samurai" here is in its plural form and is actually referring to Katsumoto's clan as a whole. This was confirmed by the director. Cruise's character was the narrator of the story about Katsumoto. And a fun-fact, this was filmed in New Zealand and Tom Cruise would have to fly by helicopter from the town he was staying in out to the set in the country side. He would fly over a small country school of only about 20-30 students and they were 5-11 yrs old. Every day they would stand outside and wave to the helicopter and had a little sign they held up saying " Hi Tom". Tom Cruize found out where the school was and arranged for his helicopter to land at the school and spent the morning with the children. Keep up the good work.

The historical character closest to the one played by Tom Cruise was a French mercenary who advised Katsumoto and trained his army but had never fought in any of the Indian wars. Contrary to this script, Katsumoto's samurai DID use firearms supplied by a Scottish entrepreneur who became the main player in Japan's industrialisation. On his death a shrine was built to honour him which is still there, and he has always been revered even during WW2. As usual, the actual events have been hijacked by Hollywood and Americanised. But as a work of fiction, it is an excellent movie.

Fun Movie Trivia: For those who don't know, Hiroyuki Sanada (The actor playing Ujio) had a stunt performance with Tom Cruise to safely strike at his neck during his first day of capture. Tom Cruise (also a great stuntman) wanted to make it authentic and convinced the producers and Hirouki Sanada to swing at his neck with an actual katana. Hiroyuki is a master in his field for sword and martial training and agreed to the terms hesitantly. When Hiroyuki swung the sword at Tom Cruise's neck he did stop early, but not soon enough to where he clipped the side of Tom's neck causing a bleeding cut. What amazed Hiroyuki during this dangerous stunt, was that during the swing and after the contact was made with Tom Cruise's neck, Tom never flinched, completely staying in charter the whole time. This stunt performance was put into the films final edit.

I went to Japan last year and it was the best place I've ever been. Everyone I encountered was pretty much how you see the samurai in this movie. Everyone was way too kind and forgiving, especially not really knowing their language and customs. Even the dominatrix was super friendly...

I think Japan is a great country for going on holiday since you dont have to worry about anything else but having a good time and will not be exposed to the all the downsides of the society. They will treat a tourist well because they know their stay is temporary, but being a foreign resident in Japan is quite the opposite. Its okay to openly discriminate against foreigners in for example housing, some appartments are only for Japanese and no gaijins

The Last Samurai is such an amazing movie. It is an emotional roller coaster ride from start to finish. Every time I watch this or watch a reaction to this it makes me cry. All that has been lost to the hands of change in the name of progress is just tragic. Words truly can't express this fact.

Thank you for the reaction. I have loved this movie for years. It was great to see it through your eyes. I love the symbolism of the white tiger that Katsumoto sees while he is meditating at the beginning of the film and then he sees it again when Algren is surrounded and fighting with the white tiger banner.

Hey, you finally got another one of my top 5 up! Glad you finally got it past copyyouknowwhat! As far as Ken’s performance goes, this is my favorite… but not gonna lie, when he says goodbye to Godzilla “goodbye, old friend”… that’s my favorite moment in all of his performances.

20 seconds in. "The Last Samurai. Them going from that way into more of a military style of combat." My sweet summer child. We are all with you on this entire journey. (also, that was their military)

And to think that around sixty years after this timeline, the Japanese started their quest for world domination! Sixty five years later, they bombed Pearl Harbor! I loved this move. Great acting by everyone. Terrific reaction by you girl!

The scene where they bust out the Gatling guns is heartbreaking every time and it’s forgivable for being a heavy handed metaphor. My favorite Tom Cruise movie no contest and I’ve seen most of them.

Undeniably my favorite movie, if that's decided by the number of times I've watched something (100+, often 'passively' or in parts -- but I've never been on an airplane without this being on my laptop to watch, even three days apart)
