I loved this movie. The fact that it showed the war from the Japanese point of view and actually humanized the Japanese soldiers just made me love this move. This is what I like, movies that show that war wasn't all black and white. That men on both sides were just doing what they were told to do. They were just doing their duty.
That was a nice comment there Salmon fan. growing up my teachers always gave us the american point of view on the war. and I love how this film gave me a glimpse of the other side. and its a non-accusing look at war, neither side is right and neither side is wrong. its just young men/boys who want to do their duty and return home. By the way have any of you seen City of Life and Death... great chinese film with an international cast about the invasion of nanking. another good war film.
A big thank you to Clink Eastwood, for bringing back the history that new generations of Japanese have almost forgotten. Former enemies today's trusted friends and allies best describes Japan - USA friendship. It's so touching to see the sacrifices of our ancestors have solidified the bond between these two countries. I'm a Japanese and I friends in both sides of the Ocean. Let's work together to make sure tragedy like this won't happen again. Peace for all.
I hate those people that called the Wehrmacht and the Imperial Army sons of bitches, those men did what was right for their countryand fought for their homeland, they were no different from you or me, or any other soldier. Some of the Wehrmacht generals, such as Rommel and some other conspirators against Hitler, were respected by American, British and i sont know about the Russians. The Japanese army was respected by the Americans because the Imperial army fought to the death and had Banzai cha
So wunderschön traurig :'( ich finde es ist eine Musik damit wir die Helfen von Iwo Jima nicht vergessen. Sie starben für ihre Familien und ihr Land, es ging um Ehre um Mut und den Glauben von Männern die den Tot ins Auge sahen. Ich muss sagen der Film hat mich auch sehr berührt :'( man sollte mehr Filme aus der Sicht der Japaner drehen und wenn wir schon dabei sind .......... dass könnte man auch bei den zweiten Weltkriegsfilmen machen, also aus der Sicht der Deutschen drehen.
@what4563 No tu sie nie spodziewalem kolegi! :) Mila niespodzianka :D Film też oglądałem i musze powiedziec ze na koniec poleciły mi łzy. Piękny film pokazujacy że każdy żolnierz ma uczucia i lęki. Nieważne po jakiej stronie walczysz, ważne żeby walczyc za pokój i żeby ten pokój trwał jak najdłużej jak sie da. Btw za ten soundtrack należo sie wielkie brawa. Pozdrawiam i szczesliwego nowego roku ;) .

From my piont of view this masterpiece of music unveils the meaninglessness of war. It's no good to fight against each other. The ones who suffer for an issue they probably don't understand are the soldiers and the families who lost a son in war
Japan is such a fascinating country, both their history and their former and existing values and aspects of honour and respect. It really bothers me when I see people who think they can categorize Japan into so many negative categories.
people argue here that Japan is evil, America is evil and vise versa. Japan did horrible things to the Chinese like mass killing them , and the Americans did also things that was horrible, they carpet bombed many Japanese and German cities and killed tons of innocent civilians. There is no good or bad in wars. The American soldiers said that the Japanese soldiers were evil and the Japanese soldiers said the American soldiers were evil, but they just did their job. They did it for their country
One country is presented evil or good depending on where you live. For example, in the cold war, if you lived in Russia, the United States were evil and vice versa.
They abducted 200,000 Asians (& Caucasians), raped them up to 50 times a day & then buried them alive to save bullets when they became sick.
*Japanese govt refruses to apologize to any of surviving sex slaves.
*It STILL sugercoats this by outrageously lying that the victims were whores who volunteered to services Japanese & received great treatment & even bigger salary than Japanese army generals.

Hey- don't get me wrong, I love the movie and music. But for all you Japanophiles who won't stop shutting up about how sad their deaths were, look "unit 731" up on google for kicks.
only one thing matches the great scale of war, and the power of a bomb. The great scale of los, and the power of a person's tears over a loved one, but war shall never end. As long as there are two people on this planet, war will still exsist, the sadness of humanity!
Most ww2 movies show the americans as the good guys and the japanese as the bad guys but this movie show the reality of the situation, that the enemy is also human, theres no good or bad guys
@tz9fly They chose the side of the people doing the mass killings of over 6 MILLION human beings. Therefore THEY are NOT human, that is a disgusting thing of mankind's existence. We fought against the Nazi's and the Japanese, for that reason and the reason that they attacked our naval base first. YES, we were the good guys in that war. And so was England, Russia, and everyone other ally country.
@Tsimfuckiss Their GOVERNMENT, not all their PEOPLE, were responsible for those 6 millions lives you mentioned. Their government must pay for their crimes, but their people... they were all forced to send their husbands and sons to die on battlefield after all. So don't you dare insult their "existence". And I don't have to mention, do I, that your "yankees" nuked their cities twice burning alive thousands of innocent lives in a blink of an eye... in the name of "justice" !?
@nhl2312 Never said anything about the Japanese people being responsible. Yes even I will say the bombings were unnecessary, though the Japanese did not want to surrender it had to be done in a way. If they had the power we had, I'm sure they would have done worse.
@AdrianDeer no it's the other way around. there are bad countries and governments who turn humans into bad people, but we are all the same species of Mankind.
@tz9fly This is true. But the military doctrine of all nations teaches their soldiers to de-humanize the enemy. And Japan was our enemy in the past. So the Americans don't want to show the "Human" side of our past and present enemies. Which is the reason for nicknames. "Gooks" "Charlie" "Tangos" "Hajji" "Cameljockey" "derka derka" "Yips (Japs)" "Freaks". All these plus more unnamed help the soldier to not feel as if he is killing another human. They are just names to him. I know. I'm a soldier.
@tz9fly yeah there were bad guys, not the poor grunts depicted in the movie but fat gentlemen ''san''s who were sitting in their offices and waging war
hero yesterday, and murderer today, and then hero again tomorrow......things like that tend to happen in war.....this movie surely teach me a lot about it...
when war is the only option, the must be war. sometimes we need to sacriface people for thye good of the many. war is cruelty, but war is the way the world is.
what whould happen in ww2 if nobody stopped hitler?
@blargers123 You cannot qualify war in harsher terms than I will. War is cruelty, and you cannot refine it; and those who brought war into our country deserve all the curses and maledictions a people can pour out. I know I had no hand in making this war, and I know I will make more sacrifices to-day than any of you to secure peace & Some of you young men think that war is all glamour and glory,
but let me tell you, boys, it is all hell!" IT IS HELL!!!
@blargers123 Although what u said is true, it might not be useful at all
we are not just human, but countrymen.
For me,as a Chinese I would never forgive the atrocities commited by the Japanese in Chinese soil(I would respect their attempt to defend their homeland), and no matter how humainly the film tries to portrait the Japanese,we still ahve to face the cold hard fact.
@blargers123 Indeed, Every movie can be seen on personal perspective, It can make anyone cry, smile, laugh or make people angry. This is the reson why there are movies, its ment to entertain ourselves, and aswel to let us learn from eachother.
I Totaly agree with you, and i truly believe that people should be more respectfull to eachother.
No matter what race, color or how you look. We're all human. (unles Alien, but thats annother story ;-) )
In nearly every Japanese colony during WW2, there were claims of genocide, and crimes against humanity. I guess every war crime from China, to Malaysia, to Indonesia, to the Philippines are all one gigantic conspiracy.
How could you expect the US to keep business with Japan going while they were threatening the Australian mainland? It is incredibly arrogant to blame a US embargo for the Japanese' bellicose position at the start of the War. Japan was in a desperate situation because they had taken the view of aggressive expansion. Japan had to have known that an attack at Pearl was going to bring forth War. They sold their own poison.
Japan was NOT threatening Australia before Pearl Harbor attack. After Pearl, the US used Australia as a military base, or the so called 'jumping board' to stage its counter attack on Japan therefore it was a legitimate target.
An oil embargo is not always an act of war but the one imposed by the US prior to Pearl Harbor Attack was. As a result, Japan was forced to dip into her strategic oil reserve that wouldn't last too long.
@TheSalmonfan You know as well as I do that an attack of Australia from the air was imminent. You Japs never admit the nature of your former Empire. They didn't just set up military bases in countries, but they enslaved those countries and established governments to rule them according to State Shinto. America might have bases in over 100 other countries, but they don't run the countries they occupy. The countries voluntarily give discretion to US forces in their countries.
@ItNice26 Let me educate you again. As early as 1930s, the Taiwanese, as Japanese colonial subjects, had already been treated as Japanese citizens, been given the right to participate in Japanese general elections. During the same period of time, Asian Americans were not allowed to vote, African Americans could have been lynched if they went to vote. Oh, did you give the right to the poor Filipinos to vote?
Even Japan's colonial subjects were much better treated than your minority citizens.
@TheSalmonfan Please don't compare Japan's victims to Black Americans, that is silly. I am definitely not Chinese either. All of your justifications for Japan's actions are falling on deaf ears. I have heard this shit before from other Jap's like you.
I guess you're in a permanent state of shock after learning Japan's 'victims' were far better treated than the visible minority Americans such as the blacks or Asians in their OWN country. Pretty traumatic, huh ?
@TheSalmonfan I guess you're in a permanent state of shock after watching Japan slide further and further into irresistable decline, its milk and beef becoming contaminated and its increasingly smaller number of young people giving up all hope and fleeing to the West like you or dressing like cartoon freaks?
There is nothing sadder than a refugee praising the dqualid, festering camp they fled from, eh?
Have you developed a genuine taste for ice hockey yet?
Its ridiculous to say that the US is responsible for most of the deaths in Vietnam. Facts make the chance of that improbable. Unfortunately most people like yourself don't examine the specific dynamics, or the even the broad history of Vietnam. You see it as an event to use as ammunition against any American, claiming that your deceased Empire was malevolent.
Both Korean war and Vietname war were the price the US had to pay fir its involvement of WW2. You nightmares have no end in sight yet as the Chinese commies and the North Korean terrorists are now thinking of how to eat your bone.
3-4 million died in Vietnam jackass, that includes both sides. Many of these were civilians, killed by both sides from strafe bombing, murder and accidents. Many of these civilians died before and after US intervention! Seeing as these figures range from 59'- 75'. US operational forces were deployed from 65'- 72'. The US intervened for less than half the total length of the conflict. Also taking into account how many Commies killed civilians to coerce them into supporting Ho Chi Minh.
Are you saying those carpet bombings conducted by B-52s killed only the commies, not civilians? They were not dropping computer-guided smart bombs in those days, were they? Oh, you mean the B-52s were piloted by the Vietcongs? What about the orange agent? Only the commies were exposed to it? No ! The fact is many Vietnamese civilians, even South Vietnamese soldiers or US GIs got exposed to it and became sick.
And those numbers you gave for Vietnam are COMPLETELY bogus! Revisionist history indeed. I am sure that it what your government approved newspapers in Japan tell you.
The total dead in Vietnam. Including North and South Vietnam, American, Nationalist and Communist allies on both sides, military and civilian, at the very most is 3.9 million. A more appropriate figure would be around 3 million. But the US is not responsible for all of these deaths, in fact, probably not even half.
When you're saying the US is not responsible for the deaths of 'civilian' ( or plain cloth Vietcong soldiers) in Vietnam war, why did you accuse Japanese soldiers of the so called 'atrocities' committed in China during WW2? You're a great practitioner of selective standards I guess.
The Chinese commies and the Vietcongs used the same dirty tacties against superior armies. They even used their own civilians as human shields..barbaric indeed.
Your 3.9 millions include neither those casualties in Laos, Cambodia, nor those killed by the effects of orange agent, or land mines that are still killing people today. 4.8 millions of those exposed to orange agent, many would die later.
The US is not responsible for those deaths? Why did you say Japan was responsible for the 20 millions Chinese deaths in WW2?
4.8 millions exposed to orange agent, some American GI included that's a reliable figure..yes I don't know exactly how many died from such exposure, but what's the difference from death or half-death ?, died immdiately or later ?
It's also true that many are still being killed by land mind as of today.
That's why you see so many Jap tourists taking pictures of all of our shit. So they can emulate it back home. You Japs are the master copy cats of the world. Every industry that you thrive in, is another race's brain child. Name one significant invention forged by a Jap???
@ItNice26 Japanese tourists? So what ? You can see them in Africa too..does it mean life is better over there?
I guess you're one of those uneducated or undereducated Americans...But how come those did all kinds of invention do not have a better quality of life? Long life expectancy comes from many things such as healthy lifestyle, healthcare, social benefit programs, social / family harmony, cleaness of living environment, financial well being....
True we didn't invent computers, cell phones, cars or trains...and I already asked you 3 times: Why the inventors of those things do not have a better quality of life than the Japanese ?
Is it because you're so illiterate that you can't read at all or you just refuse to answer my question ?
@TheSalmonfan Those figures you gave on Vietnam are ludicrous. America has a higher murder rate because our society is so integrated. And we have a large number of illegal immigrants who resort to crime. Some parts of the US, like where I live in Washington match Japan's quality of life. AMERICA is a crass generalization.
@ItNice26 Those numbers I gave on Vietnam war were not bogus..anyways that's not what I want to argue with u. My point is, Japan and the US have been sharing the common ground of anti-communism, long before WW2. It's unfortunate that, at the critical time when Japanese soldiers sacrificed themselves fighting the commies in China, the US went to the wrong side by formiing an alliance with the Chinese and Russian commies. I blame the US leadership, namely president FDR, not the America public.
@TheSalmonfan Even if these atrocities did not take place! The Japanese engaged the US in open War. You say the US were the aggressors because they placed embargoes on goods to Japan, but that is not an act of War. Its not like the US put a no-fly- zone over Japan! Japan openly engaged the US fleet at Pearl, then attacked installations at Guam, Wake, the Philippines! What is the US supposed to do!? You can't blame the US fleet for retaliating!
@ItNice26 The oil embargo was no different from act of war. Japan didn't want oil from US soil. The thing is, the US used its monopoly on the world's oil supply, imposed such embargo that would make sure no oil, not even from Japan's fellow Asian countries, would be shipped to Japan. Without oil, the Japanese military would have to bow to whatever demands the US asked for. Washington knew what it meant to Japan, all they wanted was to put Japan into a desperate position & get Japan started.
@TheSalmonfan You can't justify Air Raids because of an oil embargo. How can you blame the US for its embargo after learning about Nanking in 38' and the every malicious act perpetrated by the Japanese in Empire. An oil embargo is NOT an act of War, it may have been an economic measure that would have prevented the Japanese Empire from expanding, but an attack on Pearl and other installations could not be ignored.
The American public was learning about the 'FAKE of Nanking Massacre in 38' or other so called 'Japanese atrocities'. Those were the tricks used by the Chinese. At that time, there were two countries desperately trying to drag America into war, China was one of them, the other one was being Britain. Moreover, the US leadership in Washington was also more than eager to join in, so all they had to do was to brainwash the American public with some lies from China. Good show indeed.
@TheSalmonfan Now you have lost all credibility. Nanking happened shit head! Japs like you love to shift the blame to other people, while talking no responsibility for what happened! There are always fringe groups that try to deny documented history, you most be a part of one. It's disgusting that your government has yet to apologize for what happened, maybe that's why China wants to blow your country of the map. And they could do it, if it weren't for NATO.
@ItNice26 , You are an idiot. please go to hell or I'll sent you there with my shoe up your white trash ass.From a bad ass Asians man that will back up everything he say.
@2010THEDRAGON Wow! That went straight to the heart! I've been insulted by some anonymous dochebag on YouTube. Making threats over the internet is incredibly stupid. I don't know you, I never will, and I am a better person because of it.
@ItNice26 , Yep that's me. I hate racist stupid people. I'm sure the computer you're typing on is all American made as your car and all the content in your house. I'm not surprised, you're a typical white man with double standards, you can insult me or my race but when I do to you your not happy. WOW!! are we shocked. I don't need a response from you please have a good day.

Japanese were as evil as Nazis.
They abducted 200,000 Asians (also Caucasians), raped them up to 50 times a day & buried them alive to save bullets.
Japanese govt won't apologize to any of surviving sex slaves.
In 2007, Japanese govt org bought 1pg. of Wall Street Journal & filled it with OUTRAGEOUS LIES: 1) the females were whores who volunteered to service Japanese soldiers. 2) Japanese govt paid them more than Japanese army generals.

We fought against the Nazi's and the Japanese, for that reason and the reason that they attacked our naval base first. YES, we were the good guys in that war. And so was England, Russia, and everyone other ally country.

@tz9fly This is true. But the military doctrine of all nations teaches their soldiers to de-humanize the enemy. And Japan was our enemy in the past. So the Americans don't want to show the "Human" side of our past and present enemies. Which is the reason for nicknames. "Gooks" "Charlie" "Tangos" "Hajji" "Cameljockey" "derka derka" "Yips (Japs)" "Freaks". All these plus more unnamed help the soldier to not feel as if he is killing another human. They are just names to him. I know. I'm a soldier.

How could you expect the US to keep business with Japan going while they were threatening the Australian mainland? It is incredibly arrogant to blame a US embargo for the Japanese' bellicose position at the start of the War. Japan was in a desperate situation because they had taken the view of aggressive expansion. Japan had to have known that an attack at Pearl was going to bring forth War. They sold their own poison.
ItNice26 5 months ago
@ItNice26
Japan was NOT threatening Australia before Pearl Harbor attack. After Pearl, the US used Australia as a military base, or the so called 'jumping board' to stage its counter attack on Japan therefore it was a legitimate target.
An oil embargo is not always an act of war but the one imposed by the US prior to Pearl Harbor Attack was. As a result, Japan was forced to dip into her strategic oil reserve that wouldn't last too long.
TheSalmonfan 5 months ago
@TheSalmonfan You know as well as I do that an attack of Australia from the air was imminent. You Japs never admit the nature of your former Empire. They didn't just set up military bases in countries, but they enslaved those countries and established governments to rule them according to State Shinto. America might have bases in over 100 other countries, but they don't run the countries they occupy. The countries voluntarily give discretion to US forces in their countries.

@ItNice26 Let me educate you again. As early as 1930s, the Taiwanese, as Japanese colonial subjects, had already been treated as Japanese citizens, been given the right to participate in Japanese general elections. During the same period of time, Asian Americans were not allowed to vote, African Americans could have been lynched if they went to vote. Oh, did you give the right to the poor Filipinos to vote?
Even Japan's colonial subjects were much better treated than your minority citizens.

3-4 million died in Vietnam jackass, that includes both sides. Many of these were civilians, killed by both sides from strafe bombing, murder and accidents. Many of these civilians died before and after US intervention! Seeing as these figures range from 59'- 75'. US operational forces were deployed from 65'- 72'. The US intervened for less than half the total length of the conflict. Also taking into account how many Commies killed civilians to coerce them into supporting Ho Chi Minh.

Are you saying those carpet bombings conducted by B-52s killed only the commies, not civilians? They were not dropping computer-guided smart bombs in those days, were they? Oh, you mean the B-52s were piloted by the Vietcongs? What about the orange agent? Only the commies were exposed to it? No ! The fact is many Vietnamese civilians, even South Vietnamese soldiers or US GIs got exposed to it and became sick.
TheSalmonfan 5 months ago
And those numbers you gave for Vietnam are COMPLETELY bogus! Revisionist history indeed. I am sure that it what your government approved newspapers in Japan tell you.
ItNice26 5 months ago
The total dead in Vietnam. Including North and South Vietnam, American, Nationalist and Communist allies on both sides, military and civilian, at the very most is 3.9 million. A more appropriate figure would be around 3 million. But the US is not responsible for all of these deaths, in fact, probably not even half.
ItNice26 5 months ago
@ItNice26
When you're saying the US is not responsible for the deaths of 'civilian' ( or plain cloth Vietcong soldiers) in Vietnam war, why did you accuse Japanese soldiers of the so called 'atrocities' committed in China during WW2? You're a great practitioner of selective standards I guess.
The Chinese commies and the Vietcongs used the same dirty tacties against superior armies. They even used their own civilians as human shields..barbaric indeed.
TheSalmonfan 5 months ago

Your 3.9 millions include neither those casualties in Laos, Cambodia, nor those killed by the effects of orange agent, or land mines that are still killing people today. 4.8 millions of those exposed to orange agent, many would die later.

@ItNice26 Those numbers I gave on Vietnam war were not bogus..anyways that's not what I want to argue with u.

I blame the US leadership, namely president FDR, not the America public.

@TheSalmonfan Even if these atrocities did not take place! The Japanese engaged the US in open War. You say the US were the aggressors because they placed embargoes on goods to Japan, but that is not an act of War. Its not like the US put a no-fly- zone over Japan! Japan openly engaged the US fleet at Pearl, then attacked installations at Guam, Wake, the Philippines! What is the US supposed to do!? You can't blame the US fleet for retaliating!
ItNice26 5 months ago
@ItNice26 The oil embargo was no different from act of war. Japan didn't want oil from US soil. The thing is, the US used its monopoly on the world's oil supply, imposed such embargo that would make sure no oil, not even from Japan's fellow Asian countries, would be shipped to Japan. Without oil, the Japanese military would have to bow to whatever demands the US asked for. Washington knew what it meant to Japan, all they wanted was to put Japan into a desperate position & get Japan started.
TheSalmonfan 5 months ago
@TheSalmonfan You can't justify Air Raids because of an oil embargo. How can you blame the US for its embargo after learning about Nanking in 38' and the every malicious act perpetrated by the Japanese in Empire. An oil embargo is NOT an act of War, it may have been an economic measure that would have prevented the Japanese Empire from expanding, but an attack on Pearl and other installations could not be ignored.
ItNice26 5 months ago
@ItNice26
The American public was learning about the 'FAKE of Nanking Massacre in 38' or other so called 'Japanese atrocities'. Those were the tricks used by the Chinese. At that time, there were two countries desperately trying to drag America into war, China was one of them, the other one was being Britain. Moreover, the US leadership in Washington was also more than eager to join in, so all they had to do was to brainwash the American public with some lies from China. Good show indeed.
