It is based on the historical Satsuma rebellion, but there are major inaccuracies. The Samurai never abandoned the use of guns or modern technology. This is likely based on the final battle where the Samurai ran out of ammunition and decided to make a suicide charge. The Samurai had been using Portuguese Arquebuses since the Sengoku Period. Also, the armor that the Samurai are wearing are from the Sengoku period (1400s -1600s) whereas this conflict takes place in the 1800s.@@skillsphere9245

@@benedictodunsky2790 It's also worth noting that charges were reasonable at the time and both sides still used a mix of traditional sidearms, bayonets, and the occasional specialized traditional weapon during combat, just like European forces. Stylized wood prints show Samurai and imperial officers dueling with swords during breaches in sieges, not so dissimilar to the contemporary European dueling mythos. There were also a few guerilla actions that were made using traditional weapons because guns are loud and silencers weren't invented for another couple decades at the earliest. If anything one of the most significant images of the war is Kumamoto Castle proving to be *effective* against early modern breach tactics despite being built almost 300 years prior, and withstanding attack from multiple sides...While held by Imperial peasant conscripts. This was actually the first battle, and turning point, of the war-the castle withstood attack and the rebels never regained the initiative. It's like if the movie started with the Samurai attacking the conscripts, getting repelled by a rag-tag bunch of peasants, and then getting progressively pushed into worse and worse defensive positions as their logistic base collapsed behind them. In reality the Satsuma rebels were defeated by logistics, the unexpected bravery of the conscripts and volunteers of the Japanese army, and the illegitimacy of their rebellion in the eyes of the populace. It had nothing to do with them using traditional weapons, nor was their rebellion some heroic struggle against the future-it was the ruling class being supplanted and throwing a temper tantrum. Of course the government they were rebelling against devolved into fascism, but that's another story.

Ken Watanabe was exceptional in this, as well as in Clint Eastwood's companion piece of Flag's Of Our Fathers, Letters From Iwo Jima. One of the exectutives from Mitsubishi Shipbuilding in Nagasaki, was Kensuke Watanabe, when the battleship Musashi was being built, this is in Akira Yoshimura's book,, 'Build The Musashi'. I don't believe there is any relation though. Cannot forget Tom Cruise, he was great in many features. Take care, and all the best.

The samurai equipment that appears in this movie is from the 12th to 14th century samurai equipment. Samurai in the 19th century had a large number of guns and cannons. No samurai existed in the 19th century with such old equipment. There is a sense of discomfort.

Tons of comments about how the samurai used guns by this period which is of course correct but everyone forgetting that very early in the movie they addressed this when Aldren asks who supplies their weapons, the response was katsumoto no longer dishonors himself by using firearms. They never said he didn’t have them never said he didn’t know of them or how to use them simply that he opted not to use them. While Europe and the USA had modern firearms by this time, Japan was 200 years behind on military development due to the shogunate closing the country off. The guns n cannons the samurai had were antiquated inaccurate and took considerable time to reload. It’s accurate that many of the rebellion leaders opted to use sword bow n spears over guns because they were more effective than the guns available & because the rebels had limited ammunition/supplies as well. Before cartridge rifles became available in large numbers, many armies continued to maintain sword bow & spear formations with musket soldiers being mainly used in defensive tactics to repel charges and defend static positions. American Indians also didn’t really start using rifles / muskets in mass for the same reason they could loose 12 arrows in the amount of time it took to load and fire 1 musket ball This movie focuses on one army one leader of the rebellion not the entire rebellion & many armies in the rebellion did indeed have no access to firearms because of the significant cost to aquire them. Is the movie historically accurate not even close lol but elements of the movie that people keep calling out as Hollywood dress up are not all Hollywood either with many actually being based on some real historical examples from this period

Sadly, this movie took place after the Boshin war. The Samurai from both sides have access and used guns by that time. Satsuma's forces know and used guns but they have don't have access to ammunition which lead them to have a final banzai like charge after running out of bullets.

Bob's death hit hardest

One of the best movies

The movie took inspiration from the Satsuma Rebellion where those alligned with the Emperor/a modernized Japan and those alligned with the Shogun/traditional Japan clashed, but the Samurai under Saigo Takamori were not fighting for "the soul" of Japan or anything noble like that. They were fighting for the privileges of their dying caste, which was becoming obsolete with the rise of a professional army. And they used guns, which the Samurai had been happily using during the Sengoku Jidai as well to great effect. The whole romanticism came when Takamori and his followers were dead and Japan under Emperor Meiji needed something to put up as a moral standard to look up to. So they took the bygone Samurai warrior ethos, mixed it with nationalism and represented him as an honorable warrior who fought and died for his country without a second thought. The movie on its own is amazing to watch, but it smoothes history over to the point where "inspired by true events" would be pushing it.

The Samurai's even at the Sengoku period never considered using such weapons dishonorable. You seem to conflate the modern day meaning of dishonor to the feudal Japan's meaning of it. Honor as far as the Samurai is concerned is about serving your Lord with utmost loyalty and devotion. If your Lord says that you use nukes in battle, then it's perfectly honorable to do so.

Before there was a Capt Nathan Algren, in feudal Japan there was the Samurai Yasuke. Yasuke, born in Mozambique, was a former slave who gained employment as a bodyguard to an Italian jesuit missionary. They traveled to Japan in 1579 where Yasuke lietrally beame a celebraty with his social charm and stature. Eventually Yasuke gained employment as a sword bearer for the Daimyo. I believe Yasuke story will make an awesome movie.

So I wouldn't consider it entirely unreasonable for the commander to send in the infantry to secure the next forward position given that the artillery needed to be moved forward to the next hill crest before it could be brought to bear again given the hilly terrain. Also a bolt action rifle with the long bayonet of the time period would be better in melee for the average soldier than a soldier with a sword which has less reach. The biggest advantage the Samurai had in the melee depicted was their solid armor while the rifleman only had basic jackets.
