GI Samurai was a great movie. Fans of Sonny Chiba should love this movie as did I. Basically, its about this platoon that is sent back in time to feudal Japan. Sonny Chiba plays the platoon's captain. The platoon is forced to fight the samurai clans, its cool to see the army weaponry going up against spears & catapults. Forget plot, this movie doesn't need it, its chock full of war carnage & some unbelievable special effects. The film ultimately turns anti-war with an unexpected ending that will stay with you for days.
