Humble opinion Greetings, today I would like to write here about my impression about the serial called Shogun. So it will be kind of review. This is an old serial it started back in 1980 so as a resolt there is no special effects or computer graphics in it. But that is not a big problem I guess. So, the story begins in 1600. The main character is English called John Blackthorn he and his crew had a ship crash near Japan. Of course Japanese saves them and bring them to a shore and then troubles begins..... From the start John and watcher as well see that Japan is pretty weird and sometimes even barbarian country. Funny but Japanese think exactly the same about Blackthorn and his people. I guess( and it's absolutely true) that was an idea of that movie to show the difference between European and Japanese mind and culture and I have to say that mission accomplished. So, where was I? oh yes weird country. But the more you watch the more you getting excited about Japan, their customs and strange concept of honor and the same thoughts comes to Blackthorn's head. Ahd he "suddenly" finds out that they're not weird they just different. As an enemy and "bad guys" the movie shows us catholics's order which build a good business in Japan by selling some goods. They want to kill Blackthorn just because he is a protestant and of course he must die but also he intterapts their business. So. I'm not going to say all plot of the film, it would take a long time and I have not enough vocabulary to speak about it:( So, haven't finished watching yet but I strongly reccomend it to people who excited about Japan or even a little bit interested about this country. And that's it. Try to not broke your eyes 'cause my grammar is still bad( I will be appreciate if you fix my mistakes And thanks for reading!
