description G.I. Samurai Overview

G.I. Samurai, also known as Sengoku Jieitai, is a Japanese science-fiction war film directed by Kosei Saito. Its premise places a modern Japan Self-Defense Forces unit in the Sengoku period, an era of civil warfare in the sixteenth century. The unit's vehicles, firearms, communications equipment, and military organization give it an initial advantage, but limited supplies and its encounter with rival samurai forces drive the story.

The film combines time travel with large-scale historical combat.
