      Audience Member Nice remake of G.I. Samurai Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member "Sengoku Jieitai: 1549" Was Just as good as the original "Sengoku Jieitai". They changed the story enough so that it was less of a remake and more of a re-imagining. In this version TWO sets of Troops travel back in time. The first is pretty much the group from the original movie with a bunch of name changes, I.E. Lt. Iba Becomes Col. Matoba etc... Unlike the original, Matoba Actually succeeds in taking over ancient Japan. However, when the changes in history start to alter modern day Japan, a second unit travels back to Bring back, or neutralize the first. Pretty good film, and it lives up to the original. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member A hillarious Fantasy / Martial Arts / War Movie in which a Modern Army with Infantery, Tanks & Helicopters fight against a Samurai Clan in many entertaining Fights with a Stylish Atmosphere & Requisits Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Entertaining yarn about an experiment that goes wrong and sends a military unit back 500 years in the past to the time of the Samurai. 2 years later, a rescue unit is sent to retrieve the survivors but finds that they are trying to change history by using modern technology. By doing this, it is causing havoc in the present time.
