Sengoku Jieitai - Kenji - 01-09-2005

Today, I watched "Sengoku Jieitai"(1979). Has anyone seen this movie?

It's a strange movie. But It's one of my favorite movie. This is time travel movie. Story is Self Defence Force vs Samurai worriors. Do you know those movies, "The Final Countdown" and "Philadelphia Experiment" ? It's similar to those movies. Theme is time travel and war.

This year, remake version of Sengoku Jieitai does release at Japan. Original is 26 years ago, so maybe SFX and camera work got progress. But I think it can't get over original. Good actors starred in original. One of them, Shinichi Chiba. He was good.(Still, he is good, of course). And, Hiroyuki Sanada,who appear in "The Last Samurai",appear in original movie.

If you have opportunity, see this movie. I recommend it.

This is remake version's trailer. Check it.

Kenji,
The trailer looks really neat. I'd love to see the original. Wonder how I can see it in the US? I'll look for it.

Is Shinichi Chiba the same person as Sonny Chiba?

Yes, exactly. Sonny Chiba is his Hollywood name.

Ah, sorry. I should translate Japanese dialogues to English. Wink

Narration:"They went back to 460 years ago. Japanese self defense army went to 1549."

Officer:"They were.....gone"

Narration:"Their enemy is.........Nobunaga Oda"

Matoba:"I try again from this era, and I rebuild this country"
Kajima:"Why, Mr.Matoba?"
Officer:"Don't intervene into history. Our living world's existence is intolerant."
Woman:"We have no other way. We must get back them! That is only one way we can survive!"
Officer:"What's goin' on?"
Officer:"Answer me!"
Helicopter pilot:"It's a guided missile! It's rapidly coming!"

(Helicopter blow away)

Kajima:"Such a thing? Is this our future?"
Kajima:"You are not Nobunaga Oda!"
Kajima:"I protect them from you. I protect era of me and my friends!"
Nobunaga Oda:"Try it!"

(Fighting scenes)

Narration:Sengoku Jieitai 1549(Self defense army goes to the age of wars 1549)....Which is extinction? History, or us?


You wanna see this. Cool
