If we are looking for elaborated Japanese story, this movie is not as elaborated as (for example) Kurosawa's Samurai trilogy. If we are looking for the actions, the movie does not offer much too. This movie is a bit of everything: romance, action, etc.
However, what I really like in this movie is the eastern philosophy. Something like "love is not everything, above love there is honor (of the clan) and the obligation (towards the government)". And also about submitting to fate; like the immortal one who choose to die by inhaling the poison, simply because he accepts that "Our time has passed".
Furthermore, this movie help me to empathically see how difficult it is to be a leader; to change the vision of the members, when the members are not ready to leave the old vision. Gennosuke fails to convince his 4 warriors about the importance of avoiding the fight; I can only imagine how hard it is for a leader to convince millions of citizens to do something different.

The movie is fun, and exciting. However, I think it could've been developed into a smarter comedy, or even a good drama.
Basically, there are a lot of potential, interesting aspects to explore in the Andy-Trish relationship: the confusion of Andy to advice Trish when Trish is having a bad time with her daughter, the adaptation of Andy into "fatherhood" life (well, if he is gonna marry Trish, he'll be expected to play the role of father, rite?), the sacrifice Andy should make when Trish recommend him to part with his toys in order to have a more "responsible-adult" life.
If these area is explored further, perhaps we'll end up with a witty comedy of human adaptation into a new life. We can still use the virginity issue to spice the movie. However, the current movie is fun enough.
