(OK) Schrader se sumergió en Japón y en Mishima, rodó en japonés, pero hizo alarde de estilización fílmica y teatral, abstrajo temas pero narró el final de Mishima, entre el culto a la violencia militar nacional samurai y la homofilia oculta

"15.2. Mubi Mishiman teokset, elämä tai mikään muukaan kuin loppu eivät ole mulle tuttuja. Tämä ei vaikuta siihen, että koen saaneeni elokuvasta hyvinkin irti. Vaikuttavaa kuvallista työtä ja pohdituttava katsaus henkilön sisään."

"No por nada lo llamaron el último samurai, debido a que sus valores eran bastante anacrónicos en el tiempo que vivió. Era un loco y un patriota como pocos, y pienso que la película enaltece sus visiones y fracasos de manera peculiar. Aparte tiene de las mejores cinematografías y escenografías que he visto en un filme."
