From a westerner’s perspective of Japan, this is absolutely the best movie about Japan you’ll come across. You can take that to the bank! Star studded, fantastic acting, a touching story and an incredible score that easily carries its weight even today. Hats off to Hans Zimmer.

I've always enjoyed this movie. It kind of gives you a foreigners look into a changing Japan.

Excellent movie
