A simply super movie - 6 stars and Michael Douglas best film and superb support by Masa. Great work by Ridley Scott and an atmospheric and perfect score by Hans Zimmer!!
I always tell People this movie was cooler in the late 80s besides Wall Street than Michael Douglas against the Japanese Yakuza …directed by Ridley Scott 😮
Fantastic film and great cast! Hans Zimmers scoring for this movie was simply outstanding and a musical classic as he has captured the spirit and ethos of Japan and the Japanese people! Few Western composers could have done that!
Terrific from start to finish! One of Ridley Scotts best ever movies with Gladiator! Michael Douglas and the Japanese Actor that played Inspector Masamoto were simply superb! Six stars to all!!
I would disagree it is one of his best as he has made some absolute masterpieces in many generations. And I don't mean to discredit this movie at all. It is in fact one of my favourite and I love every second especially the ending where this plays. It's just hard to compete with alien, gladiator, kingdom of heaven (DC of course), American gangster blade runner etc :)

35 years ago, I sat down to watch Black Rain for the very first time, and it left a lasting impression that hasn’t faded with time. Directed by Ridley Scott, this movie wasn’t just a gripping crime thriller-it was a powerful bridge between cultures, with unforgettable performances that elevated it to greatness. One of the shining stars of the film was the legendary Ken Takakura, whose quiet strength and magnetic presence brought the character of Masahiro Matsumoto to life. Takakura’s ability to convey emotion with just a glance, his unwavering honor, and his dedication to his craft made him one of the greatest actors of the century. Even after all these years, Black Rain remains a favorite-proof that truly great art transcends time. Ken Takakura is greatly missed, but his legacy lives on in his films and the profound impact he had on audiences around the world. What’s a movie that has stayed with you for decades? Let’s celebrate the stories and actors who’ve shaped our love for cinema.
Me (and my now ex wife) in 2010 on honeymoon My only son was born in 2011 and my favorite bass in my very own collection is an edwards (the made in Japan Esp lawsuit series) which serial number is March 11th 2011 when original plant got destroyed by tsunami
This movie had one of the most satisfying endings I've seen in an 80's film and the score embodied that ending almost perfectly. Beautiful and Powerful.

I like how it subverts expectations. It's set up to do the cliche "the bad guy gets it" scene; but then bam, they walk his ass into the station with that perfect theme playing.
One ofvthe things that I love more is The fact that in all 1980's actuó móviles The villain should hace bern executed by The Hero, speccially if that villain murdered The hero'd movie. But Ridley Scott decided that Michael Douglas's hace to respect The moral Code of a honest cop because he knows that be a dishoniur for Massa, o he arrested and delivered him alive.
One of the most underrated movies of the 80,and it's a wonderful movie really.... A Douglas at his peak,a Andy Garcia young and acting just perfect,as for Matsuda(Sato)and Takamura(Masa)both no doubt one of the biggest actors Japan delivered to the world along Toshiro Mifune(Oyabun Sugai ).... RIP Matsuda RIP Takamura RIP Mifune
Saw this in theater in NYC in the 80's. Unforgettable scene, redemption, forgiveness, acceptance by both Douglas and Ken-san's character. Such great characters! Hard to believe they were acting, its that good. Can't remake this - impossible. RIP Ken-san. :(
Ultimately, a fantastic story of redemption for 2 men. Great film. For Nick, it was about reclaiming his honor. Nick admitted to Maas that he had taken dirty money from drug busts in the United States when he was having a rough time keeping up with expenses with just his salary. Maas reminded Nick that doing so was dishonorable to all cops including Maas, his deceased partner Charlie and most of all to himself. Maas's refusal to give up on Nick and putting his own neck on the line to capture Sato helped Nick to truly understand his past dishonor. Nick leaving the plates behind showed Maas that Nick truly got the message and he reclaimed his honor. For Maas, the redemption was for his previous multiple failures to finish any important job because of his refusal to stray from the rigid tactics his culture and training required. Nick showed him a different and effective way to get the job done by trusting his partner in the face of difficult odds and risk to his career while keeping his honor in the end.
That's great acting RIP Ken Takakura along with Yūsaku Matsuda who passed away shortly after the film was made i will always injoy the score good stuff rest in peace REPLY
Akio Utsunomiya yes the actor who played Sato had cancer and didn't tell anyone so the movie could be filmed as planned. He was an honorable man and actor.
Douglas thumbs up and smile are so genuine we could say those guys were TRUE friends and not just professional actors at work. Mr. Takakura was also a legend in acting in this movie. A true talent to be remembered and celebrated.

This is an amazing movie. I watch this movie because of Ken Takakura, but all actors are so great in this. Makes me always tears in my eyes the ending of this movie. Great music too.
This movie was the quintessence of the 1980s. Epic and very emotional ending, greatest soundtrack i ever heard. I saw this film feve days ago in the first time in my life and i am very impresd. Wonderful actors, greate music, and so touching story. I miss the 80s so much.
Except Nick’s so-called redemption includes corrupting Masa. Providing him with the two imprinting plates … (paraphrasing): “if someone had both, they’d be set for life” from earlier in the movie. So, they were not turned in as police evidence but instead covertly gifted to Masa. Earlier, Masa made Nick feel shame for skimming proceeds of crime.
I've seen this movie so many times I can match up all the spoken dialogue in these scenes to the movement of the actors mouths in my head. That's how much I freaking love this movie!
K M me too. The actor playing Sato had cancer and didn't tell anyone so the movie could be filmed as planned. He died two months later. He was an honorable man and actor 😥😥😥

I've been watching this movie at least 10 times every year since 89 . So do the accounts. This is one movie that wont get out of my head . A real masterpiece.
What a chemistry between the odd couple! Both characters and actors are brilliant. Very rare in movies. Not to forget the villain. Also a spot on casted guy.
Really not that hard to do, just time it from when the door is kicked open at the police station... after that it's more or less one continuous music cue until the Greg Allman song starts for the credits.
I must have listened to this a 100 times in the last month alone. The video is great to watch while listening. They don't make movies like this these days! And while hans zimmer has gone on to write so many amazing film scores I think this one is still my favourite from him
When he mentioned the plates, he did think they were lost. But then Douglas replied back about how whoever had them could print up a fortune. You can see Ken's face change at that moment, and he maintained that disappointed look until he saw the plates in the box. Look at how his face changes from roughly 3:05 to about 3:20. Everything about his expression says "huh. let me get this liar out of here."
This is one of the best tracks from the movie’s score. It truly captures the spirit of triumph from the capture of Sato and the redemption of Nick Conklin and Matsumoto-San. One of the best “good guys come out on top” moments from the 80’s
Perhaps the only thing that could have made the scene more memorable would have been to have Matsumoto enter with his ‘battlefield pick-up’ Yakuza H&K MP5A3 sub machine gun reverse-slung over his strong side (right) shoulder with no magazine in the well, action locked open to show the weapon is Safe, and after he announces the capture and custody of Sato, slips the slung SMG off his shoulder and sets it down on the nearest desk with a heavy metallic clunk, thereby establishing his credentials as one bad ass cop. Just a thought…
What a great ending to a film, all of the osaka prefecture police officers watching mas and nick in awe and shock with both men holding onto sato in their clutches, as they finally redeemed themselves, with the theme song play and kick in as they walk over to chief ohashi... While Charlie looks down from heaven feeling so proud of nick and mas. 👏👏
One of my favourite films of all time. I have had a long lasting love and respect for japan and its culture. I have no idea why but it's been there for 30 years. I'd love to go there someday.
One of my favorite movies!! Thank you for this video🤩 Redemption, honor in our personal values, pardoning ourselves and going on with ulterior mission that we choose, truthful friendship... and more! Woooow! I watched "Black Rain" in movie theater when it was presented: with all the action scenes and powerful music you could feel everyone so excited. "BLACK RAIN" is marvelous😍 I also love that last kiss: full of sincere wish of blessings and complicity in all that was happening to Mr. Douglas' character... an ever lasting friendship also? Perhaps😉...
The sound quality on this is amazing, this part of the film and the memory of it brought me here. Chinese and Japanese music is like magic when mixed with a back track.
"There is only one judge of honor for the warrior, himself. The decisions you make and the actions that follow are reflections of who you really are. You can't hide from yourself." 6th principle of Bushido
Just watched it. Can't believe I only know about this amazing film now! Love Nick and Masahiro relationship, from hating each other to becoming friends. And this song got stuck to my head since!
One of the best movie of the 80s and till today gives me the goosebumps. My kids that thought of it being rubbish watched it twice . Soundtrack is wow . Simply no words .
Since I was 10 iv been mesmerised with this country. This film is one of my favourites. Iv been wanting to see Tokyo for a very long time. I'm 40 this year and my tickets booked for September. Tokyo here I come 😃
Take a Great British Film Director, Two Amazing Actors Michael Douglas and Andy Garcia and mix them up with Japanese actors and You have a wonderful Movie known as Black Rain.
Well said 😊just watched it again last watched it when it came out ! Could not remember what happened 🤔. But as the film went on ? I felt a dark dred n brace yourself 😮. Dam !
Thank you for the wonderful job of combining the end of the movie with this fantastic score. I saw this movie in the theater in Salinas, CA a couple days after being released in the fall of 1989, and after I just returned from a deployment to Panama, I was stationed at Ft. Ord.CA,... 30 years later and this film still remains one of my Top 10 all-time greats. Having been to Japan in the '80's, I truly appreciated the way Ridley Scott captured the Japanese culture. This film does not get the credit it truly deserves.
I watched this film in 1994 in India on VHS. It is an average movie, but I still remember this scene, where the two cops walk Sato through the length of the office with all the Japanese cops looking at them speechless. A great scene with a great score. Even average movies can have great scenes.

Suited the movie perfectly. Hans Zimmer knows how to do soundtracks. This film is a picture of the late 80s, love it.

Great acting by Ken Takakura in the end when he discovers the "moneyplates" under the shirt.
My favorite one of Ridley Scott films.
I loved how he perfectly displayed disappointment that he thought Douglas' character had stolen the plates.
I wonder that he always was expecting that the plates were completely lost - and not that Douglas had stolen them.
When he mentioned the plates, he did think they were lost. But then Douglas replied back about how whoever had them could print up a fortune. You can see Ken's face change at that moment, and he maintained that disappointed look until he saw the plates in the box. Look at how his face changes from roughly 3:05 to about 3:20.

I also love that last kiss: full of sincere wish of blessings and complicity in all that was happening to Mr. Douglas' character... an ever lasting friendship also? Perhaps😉...
Love this song. Greatings from Portugal.
A great movie and a spectacular ending !!!
The sound quality on this is amazing, this part of the film and the memory of it brought me here. Chinese and Japanese music is like magic when mixed with a back track.

Reminds me my childhood. One of my best films. The soundtrack the acting the story ...everything 😊
A great film, brilliant sound track.
Thank you for posting.
Just watched it. Can't believe I only know about this amazing film now! Love Nick and Masahiro relationship, from hating each other to becoming friends. And this song got stuck to my head since!
One of the best movie of the 80s and till today gives me the goosebumps. My kids that thought of it being rubbish watched it twice .
Soundtrack is wow . Simply no words .
this is my one of favorite scene ever‼️
i like three of them.
Yusaku matsuda who played villain in this movie was the costliest actor in all of Asia when he was filming this movie
Since I was 10 iv been mesmerised with this country. This film is one of my favourites. Iv been wanting to see Tokyo for a very long time. I'm 40 this year and my tickets booked for September. Tokyo here I come 😃
Hope you are there now. Enjoy.
For the real experience, you should go to Dotonbori in Osaka where they shot the movie on the bridge!
Litteraly the score that made me love film music❤❤❤❤
One of my favorite movies of all time!!! It's a masterpiece!
Take a Great British Film Director, Two Amazing Actors Michael Douglas and Andy Garcia and mix them up with Japanese actors and You have a wonderful Movie known as Black Rain.
Well said 😊just watched it again last watched it when it came out ! Could not remember what happened 🤔. But as the film went on ? I felt a dark dred n brace yourself 😮. Dam !
Thank you for the wonderful job of combining the end of the movie with this fantastic score. I saw this movie in the theater in Salinas, CA a couple days after being released in the fall of 1989, and after I just returned from a deployment to Panama, I was stationed at Ft. Ord.CA,... 30 years later and this film still remains one of my Top 10 all-time greats. Having been to Japan in the '80's, I truly appreciated the way Ridley Scott captured the Japanese culture. This film does not get the credit it truly deserves.
A really great underrated movie. Thank you for posting this bit of the score. It's a good soundtrack too. I purchased it and the movie.
One of the best Films ever!!!
He dont want nick to bow but instead he just wanted him to shake hands.He had so much respect to nick.RIP Takakura.

私は東映大泉の撮影所で高倉健さんに遭遇しました。私は当時、学生で別作品の製作部で。高倉健さんは「ホタル」の撮影中でした。

One of best movies of ALL TIME!!!
One of the most underrated movies ever...
I watched this film in 1994 in India on VHS. It is an average movie, but I still remember this scene, where the two cops walk Sato through the length of the office with all the Japanese cops looking at them speechless. A great scene with a great score. Even average movies can have great scenes.
One of my favorite movies in the 80s
Fantastic film, with a great soundtrack.
Thank you for "Nick and Masa" score!
