This is the biggest misconception about this movie. Algren IS lethal, and is absolutely meant to be so from the very beginning. The dude is a decorated Civil War and Indian Wars veteran, IE he is a very seasoned soldier. His struggle is that his background is cavalry and is not used to fighting on foot, is using a weapon he's not used to, and is a drunk suffering from pretty heavy PTSD for the first half of the film. In the first battle he's shown wrecking house before his horse gets taken out from underneath him, and chances are that he's most likely a much better horseman than most of Katsumoto's men.

I love that the ninjas look like they're winning at first. A neck snap from behind, ambush with arrows, one guy gets an unexpected claw to the face, another a thrown star to the throat, another one gets taken down with some sort of thrown rope thingy from behind...then the element of surprise is over, their tricks stop taking the samurais by surprise and suddenly they start losing because it becomes a straight up fight. A great depiction of both types of fighters.

@Sidragrosm 2 жыл бұрын

A Ninja, even a Master Ninja is an Ambush Predator (so to speak) - Every last dirty "trick" in the book..? is used by them. For a Ninja, Honor only exists in the completion of their task - Otherwise..? It's Anything Goes. Samurai on the other hand..? Are THE Apex Predator - They are literal Weapons of War. In a straight fight (if such even exists for a Ninja) count on the Ninja being slaughtered. Ninjas are NOT designed for open warfare. Samurai..? *LIVE* for it.

@@Sidragrosm Read this: Humiliated and furious, Oda Nobuo decided to attack Iga immediately in an all-out assault. His *ten to twelve thousand warriors* (10,000 to 12,000 samurai) launched a three-pronged attack over the major mountain passes in eastern Iga in September 1579. They converged on Iseji village, where the 4,000 to 5,000 Iga warriors lay in wait. As soon as Nobuo's forces had entered the valley, *Iga fighters attacked from the front* , while other forces cut off the passes to block the Oda army's retreat. From the cover, the Iga ninja shot Nobuo's warriors with firearms and bows, then closed to finish them off with swords and spears. Fog and rain descended, leaving the Oda samurai bewildered. Nobuo's army disintegrated - some killed by friendly fire, some committing seppuku, and thousands falling to the Iga forces. As historian Stephen Turnbull points out, this was "one of the most dramatic triumphs of unconventional warfare over traditional samurai tactics in the whole of Japanese history." Oda Nobuo escaped the slaughter but was roundly chastised by his father for the fiasco. Nobunaga noted that his son has failed to hire any ninja of his own to spy out the enemy's position and strength. "Get shinobi (ninja)... This one action alone will gain you a victory."

@@AnimalsandInfotainmentTube You said it (or rather, quoted it) yourself - "Unconventional Warfare." But then, many a son behave stupidly trying to impress their fathers (VERY few Sons ever escape the shadow of such Fathers, after all). Beyond that..? The Iga Ninja are INFAMOUS. Moreover, The leader of the Iga (can't recall who that was at that point) doubtless knew his enemy and baited him - The Elder Oda would have been (and History bears this out) FAR more calculating - He certainly wouldn't have let his pride get the better of him. But what was "True" in the 16th Century, wouldn't ~exactly~ apply in the 18th Century. But your point is *very* well made. Shah Mat.

Out of ALL the crazy action here, is a point I find most endearing: Katsumoto, for all his grand reputation and solid, established authority, allowed himself to be a point of humor and fun in a play. And it worked to expand his role culturally. He wasnt afraid of fun and mockery, and actually joined in on the silly shenanigans. THAT is the mark of a true, confident leader. i would have followed him too after this.

Many Ninja were former samurai and they DID take part in actual real life historical battles in Japanese history. The ninjas specialized in covert missions but could be used effectively to harass the enemy with guerrilla warfare type tactics, such as ambushes, of which many samurai were not familiar with or prepared for. Ninjas were a specially trained group of spies and assassins but also MERCENARIES. The functions of the ninja included espionage, sabotage, infiltration, assassination, and open combat in certain situations. The Koga Ninja were noted to have taken part in many battles during the warring states period of Japan. So, the battle scenario being presented in this film is really not as far fetched as many here seem to think.

I'm agree with you.And i'd like to add that i don't think Ninja were always mercenaries(i know you didn't say that but it's a precision).Sometimes they were at the service of a lord and were loyals.Some acess to samurai rank as a reward for their good service.

Eριcα/Pяιηcεss/Кетрін very true, however originally before being seen as usefull by the fuedal lords, The Ninja were originally Farmers and peasents who grew tired of being abused and oppressed by the Shogun's main elite guard. Many of their teachings, from combat to spiritual awareness and meditation stem from esoteric bhuddist Sects such as Shugendo. Many of those handsigns are mudras and mantra for meditation from such sect. Kugi-in and Kuju-kiri....you see this in Naruto allot (except Naruto is not a very good "ninja" anime....they are more like battle mages) it wasnt until the Tokugawa that the Ninja and Ninjitsu became a tool for the Warlords....

Recently rewatched this. When i was a kid it was only an action scene but it hits differently as an adult. The samurai followed a strict life of daily training and meditation but a sneak attack killed plenty of those who were unprepared and even when they prepared, a rifle on the hands of a decently trained farmer will beat a veteran samurai. It was truly the death of the old way of life. I found myself tearing up at the gatling gun scene.
