@@captainyank138 exactly. it's just plain and simple that firearms will beat melee weapons every time, and the fact that this movie focuses almost completely on a good shot that switches his weapon for an inferior one and then fights for a secluded village against the guys with guns is almost comedic. basically nothing makes sense.

I was stationed in Okinawa for 2.5yrs, which most people hated, and while I would have rather been stationed in America, it was the most amazing experience ever. Towards the end I would travel to the remote areas of the island, looking at WW2 memorials. When I was at “Hacksaw Ridge” in Naha, an old Japanese man speaking broken English took it upon himself to translate all the Japanese scripture around that hill, and share the story of the battle. No hatred, no resentment, just generations past discussing something tragic…

@@Ren-bj4xm I was stationed in Okinawa for a while and I can say there is a valid reason for the distrust. Okinawa is home to nearly 50k us soldiers and although most of them are good there are few bad, really bad apples there. The government basically just arms a bunch of 20 year olds, fills them with superiority complex and send them here. I have seen plenty of younger soldiers being rude, racists and sometimes aggressive toward locals. Not to mention the occasional big incidents, like the Okinawa rape/murder case, where a base personnel killed a local women. Thats why locals always treat us with distrust

I think this is the only movie (made by Western media) where Westerners got a glimpse of Meiji Era Japan (1868-1912). As you can see here, Japan is modernizing for the first time and rapidly. And of course, not everyone is happy with the changes. At this point in the movie, Japan is mixed between the old and the new. I’ll admit, I did feel bit unease when I saw this, how the Americans are giving Japan weapons and teaching modern warfare given Japan will later use them against America and their Asian neighbors. But it’s not the first time. Portuguese traders sold Japan guns and later use them to invade Korea during the Imjin War (1592-1598)

Personally, I’m always fascinated what East Asia was like around the end of the 19th Century/beginning of 20th Century. We can only imagine their surprise and shock when they first saw steam engines, cars, and motorized vehicles, electricity, and their first taste of coffee. While these inventions took time and trials-and-errors to build in the West, they are introduced in East Asia practically overnight by comparison. I’ve seen historical-drama shows and movies like: Jet Li’s “Once Upon A Time In China” Series and “Fearless.” Japanese drama “Clouds Over The Hill.” Korean drama “Mr. Sunshine.”

Though I gotta say, I too am an Asian, a Westernized Asian to be exact. It’s kind of funny for me see Asians back react with surprise or shock to Western modern invention and stuff. For one example, they never heard of coffee before? Everybody (nowadays) knows what coffee is. You know, like how some stuff seems so new and mysterious back then, but they are common everyday things in the West or today. By the way, I choose tea over coffee anytime.

The movie was completely inaccurate from the history side for those who don’t know The time period in the movie was set in Japan was in the Meiji era where it’s been a few hundred years since Japan has opened doors to trade but they didn’t realize how far behind they were with weapons and tactics, also new technology, the Samurai despise this and told the emperor not to trade with foreign materials cause it can ruin our traditional roots and culture of what a samurai is, the emperor had no choice but did it anyways and this infuriated the Samurais and caused major conflicts in Japan for the nobles and political parties in Japan, the imperial army is what Japan’s new army are called, with armies 10x the size of the Samurai, the emperor told the Samurai or so called rebels to surrender but they refused and a war or battle mostly broke out 500 samurais fought against the imperial army, the Samurai was lucky and got away within the first wave of the battle but lost significant amount of men 500 now down to 60, once the samurai made the final push all of them were dead, but after the incident the emperor and political parties started to take in consideration that they can’t forget who they were so they honored all of the samurais after the incident, and all of this happened after the battle of shiroyama

You got a couple things mixed up. Japan opened borders and 12 years later the Boshin war between the emperor and Shogun broke out. The Shogun was the one who opened the borders, not the emperor. The emperor even tried to close them again until seeing it was of no use. What followed was the Boshin war, where emperor basicly couped himself back into power. That war was less about modernization than just a normal power struggle. Ignoring the Ezo republic, that's when the Meji Period starts. Taigo Satsuma, who lead the emperor's forces in the Boshin War rebelled over the basically abolishment of the Samurai class, not the modernization itself. And they didn't win a single battle. Well excluding that for hearts and minds of the people.

Gonna disagree with you on the second one, first one is on point. He was haunted by his past, trough the first half of the movie he keeps having flashbacks of the slaughter of the native americans after he made friends with them. He seems to have PTSD and he's self medicating with alcohol. In the scene he sees the fight and hears the gunfire and even hears the fight between himself and the general who ordered the massacre. He even yells "No, i told you" as response. The whole movie aims to show how the inner peace he found in the village healed his ptsd and his alcoholism.

This is a very accurate movie as samurais don't use their Katana in battles when they don't have a feeling they will die as they use their Naginata which is the spear Japan uses.
