This movie is about the Japanese soldiers getting invaded by the Americans. This movie really gives you a different perspective of the Japanese.
It starts out with the Japanese building trenches along the shore. One of the Japanese soldiers says that they should just give the island to the Americans so they could all go home but one of the Commanders overheard him. The commander started to beat the living crap out of him.
The Japanese were preparing for war with the Americans.
The Japanese anticipated that the Americans would land on a certain area on the island so they were getting ready in that certain place.
The Americans finally came to the shore with their boats and the war began. The Japanese were told to hold their fire until all of the Americans were on shore. All the Americans were now on shore so the Japanese started to fire and the Americans were firing back.
Japan was highly out-numbered and were forced to draw back. Many of the Japanese soldiers chose to commit suicide so they wouldn't give the Americans the satisfaction of killing them.
The Japanese were drawing back farther and farther because they were losing.
All of the Japanese soldiers were taught that the Americans were blood thirsty savages and towards the end of the movie they found out that that is not true at all.
The Japanese helped a wounded American soldier and realized that the Americans were no different than them at all.
The main guy in the movie had a wife and a baby on the way and he got through many obstacles and battles throughout the movie and was captured and aided by the Americans. The Americans were helping him and that is when he realized that the Americans were good people.
He got to go home to his wife and new baby.
