This Movie Is Just Dances With Wolves but with Japanese People

What happens when you take Dances With Wolves, move the story to feudal Japan, throw in some samurai, and give Tom Cruise a sword? Well, apparently you get The Last Samurai!

This week we're diving into the 2003 historical epic starring Tom Cruise, Ken Watanabe, and Timothy Spall. We're talking about the movie's similarities to Dances With Wolves, its portrayal of Japanese culture, the samurai, the action sequences, and whether this is actually a great movie or just another Hollywood story about a white guy discovering a culture that already existed.

Is The Last Samurai an underrated historical epic? Does it do justice to the samurai and Japanese history? And just how much of this movie is basically Dances With Wolves with Japanese people?

Join us as we break down The Last Samurai, share our thoughts, and probably ask some questions Hollywood wasn't expecting.
