    4.5/5 (198 Reviews)
    5/5 What can you say. Greatest Mini for tv ever. Like the book wish it would go on and answer a lot of questions
      by Frederick E. Taylor (Kennewick Wa.)
    What do you want,Great TV Mini just seems there is not enough of it. wish it had the other 4 hours.

    5/5 fascinating and excellent
      by Sheila Kwartler (MA USA)
    Shogun is an extraordinary depiction of feudal Japan. It's not only a fascinating story, but it actually teaches rudimentary Japanese idioms. The story is wonderful and the acting, especially Toshiro Mifune, is astonishing.

    1/5 bought the dvd from supermart and its junk
      by Robert S. Bignell Jr. (WIS USA)
    I LIKE THE SHOW SHUGUN BUT I BOUGHT IT FROM SUPERMART AND IT IS JUNK IT DOES NOT PLAY ON MY DVD PLAYER AND I EMAILED SUPERMART 5 TIMES AND THEY WILL NOT GET BACK TO ME SO IF ANY OF YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT BUYING FROM SUPERMART I WOULD THINK ABOUT IT TWICE BECAUSE THEY WILL NOT GET BACK TO YOU ROBERT

    James Clavell's Shogun Summary The Story Of A Shipwrecked English Navigator Who Becomes A Samurai During A Struggle For Power By A Shogun And The Emperor In Feudal Japan.
    genre: feature Film-drama
    rating: nr
    release Date: 23-sep-2003
    media Type: dvd

    What better way to escape from the onslaught of so-called reality television than to sail away with Richard Chamberlain to "the Japans" for a little samurai action and some discreet "pillowing"? From the golden age of the miniseries comes this television benchmark, the 10-hour, Golden Globe-winning saga based on James Clavell's bestselling epic. In his award-winning performance, Chamberlain stars as John Blackthorne, the 17th-century English navigator on a Dutch trading ship. A storm runs the ship aground off the coast of Japan, a "torn and cruelly divided country" locked in a power struggle between Toranaga (the venerable Toshiro Mifune) and Ishido, two warlords who would be Shogun. Blackthorne gets over his initial culture shock ("I piss on you and your country," he defiantly proclaims to his samurai captors, which to his humiliation turns out to be an unfortunate choice of words) to become a trusted ally of Toranaga and the lover of the beautiful interpreter Lady Mariko (Yoko Shimada). Their forbidden, ill-fated romance--and Blackthorne's total assimilation into Japanese culture--is set against political intrigue as Toranaga prepares for the inevitable showdown with Ishido, and Blackthorne's growing influence threatens the local Jesuits who had built up a lucrative trade monopoly. Shogun was a production blessed with good karma, and it remains an awesome achievement from a bygone era when the miniseries was king. --Donald Liebenson
