Seven Samurai
The Last Samurai
Both are excellent. The first is widely regarded as a GOAT and the other is criminally underrated.

The Mini-Series "Shogun" is the GOAT IMO. It really delved into the whole Feudal System of Japan during the times of the Samurai.
Not only did Richard Chamberlain nail his role, I love the fact that the Japanese spoke in the native tongue with the use of subtitles.

btw,
If you didn't see the Shogun mini-series when it first came out...
Give it a watch.
People probably think it's cheesy, 80's, Richard Chamberlain, blah, blah, blah...
I was expecting it to be dated and cheesy. But rewatched it a few years ago and it really holds up.
Great TV miniseries. I mean it has Mifune in it for godssake...Seven Samurai, Yojimbo, Throne of Blood.

There are 2 movies that I have no idea why Hollywood hasnt either made or done a mega-money remake of:
1. William Adams: the english man turned samurai and inspiration for James Clavelle's Shogun novel ( an older movie/short series was made but its time for a new full-length remake)
2. Yasuke: black samurai.

The Seven Samurai and Ran are the two best , Akira Kurosawa was an absolute master of cinema.

Red Sun, also known as Soleil rouge (1971), is a Charles Bronson western with Toshirô Mifune, Alain Delon, Ursula Andress and Capucine. It was one of my favorites growing up. Shanghai Knights stole a lot from it.

Ehh no it didn’t really work like that. Samurai were more like feudal lords and less like knights. Hell a lot of times Samurai were actively fighting against the emperor. I’m sure sometimes some of them protected the emperor

Seven Samurai is probably the right answer but my personal favorite:

This goes back a ways, and it was not a movie but a series. Give "Shogun" a look. It deals with foreigners in Japan during the time of feudal warlords and samurai hierarchy.
Excellent series with good acting, great sets and lots of action as the story progresses.
EAT: Didn't read all the posts and see this has been recommended a few times. My bad, but it still is a great watch.
