Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Mesmerizing story Comment: Shogun is one of the best adaptations of a literary bestseller to the small screen. Superb acting, great scenery and great suspense story. Too bad that one of the 5 discs is flawed. The picture stalls and there is no way to continue watching unless the skip button is used causing that a considerable part of the film is not possible to view. Customer Rating: Summary: Outstanding Movie! Comment: Anyone that has seen Tom Cruise in The Last Samurai will love this movie. I actually think Sho Gun is better. Richard Chamberlain does an excellent job. I highly recommend this movie. Customer Rating: Summary: Powerful Movie Comment: The movie Shogun shows the true side of the Japanese culture during the 17th century and I have yet to find anything that is close to this production. Customer Rating: Summary: Shogun Comment: Simply an awesome mini-series. One of my favorites. Glad to get it on dvd. Good product. Customer Rating: Summary: Book to Film Comment: Great film rendition of the book. A little hokey at times, considering the improbability of a Gaijin becoming Samurai, but hey, that's the way the book was written. I found the depiction of Post-Heiyan, feudal Japan to be fairly accurate, and the Japanese actors performed flawlessly. Watch this film and enjoy. More Reviews
