about the progress of the Japanese nation vs. their ancient traditions. the samurai were the great warriors of japan but fought in old custom ways. they were the very basic foundation of the traditional Japanese ways for centuries. they didn't use rifles, cannons, pistols, etc.
the young emperor wanted to make a better life for his people and modernize japan. the samurai opposed these ideas but at the same time was loyal to the emperor. the emperor's top adviser, who was obsessed with power, convinced him to persuade the samurai to agree to the changing ways even if it meant by military force. in the end the Japanese army killed all the samurai. the emperor realized he should mix progress with tradition. the emperor realized he should have gone a different way with the samurai. he demoted his chief adviser and moved to make a better life for his people.

Tom cruise is an American soldier who to Japan to help the army there fight some samurais, the first battle they have, the Japanese army looses and tom is captures by the samurais. As time goes on he starts practicing the samurai way. At the last part there is a kick *** battle, which is very, very sad. The samurais in horse and with swords are slaughtered by the japanese army machine guns. The last samurai then kills himself.

from what I know is T.C.'s character was a solider and became an alcoholic for post traumatic stress then he was recruited to teach the Japanese to fight with guns but he was captured by the Samurai people and even though he went as an enemy after he studied them he became a true friend and Ally to the Leader and the whole community so he fought with the Samurai against the Japanese army to show the Emperor the way and Honor that the Samurai really had
