47 Ronin

47 Ronin is an American adventure, drama, fantasy, action film depicting a fictional account of the forty-seven Ronin (a real-life group of masterless samurai). This  movie was shown in 2013 but we weren't able to watch it so I'm happy that my husband bought a bluray.


Although the ending made me cry (I hate goodbyes in whatever form) I really liked this movie, starring my favorite Keanu Reeves.

47 Ronin only proved that love gives you strength and courage to face any battles. I also like the memorable lines from the movie.

Mika: My father taught me this world was only a preparation for the next, that all we can ask is that we leave it having loved and being loved.
Kai: I will search for you through 1,000 worlds and 10,000 lifetimes until I find you.
Mika: I will wait for you in all of them.

Ôishi: No one, but you and I, can know that you are, and will always be, the joy of my life.

Ôishi: We will leave this record of our courage so the world will know who we were and what we did. Tonight, we will regain our honor and avenge our lord. None of us knows how long he shall live or when his time will come, but soon, all that will be left of our brief lives is the pride our children feel when they speak our names.

Ôishi: When a crime goes unpunished the world is unbalanced. When the wrong is unavenged the heavens look down on us in shame. We too must die for this circle of vengeace to be closed. We will leave this record of our courage so the world will know who we were and what we did. Tonight, we will regain our honor and avenge our lord. None of us knows how long he shall live or when his time will come, but soon, all that will be left of our brief lives is the pride our children feel when they speak our names.
