I am very skeptical about eastern films but this principle is soon to be altered after seeing Shogun. I believe this latest historically inspired genre brings more elating and electrifying feelings behind the screens. It starts by enjoying the captivating sound mix and background score which together ripples the film's frequency to scintilate a purposeful masterpiece. The historical essence portrayed perfectly by precise costumes and well prepared landscapes drive the desire to travel back in time. Perphaps it is the motionary Osaka that wakes the joy of wanting to belong in the past. I see this film to be well written, acted and produced to meet the needs of historical drama lovers just like myself, and I can boldly put on record here that this is the best Japanese themed movie ever made on screen. There is no hiding the fact that Shogun is a must watch piece if you call yourself a movie lover!
