The Last Movie I'll See With Tom Cruise In It

Rating: Null/10 (10 February 2004)

Well, maybe not. Tom Cruise was good in "Eyes Wide Shut". However, I can't say that about his performance in "Last Samurai" (but he walks away with $20 million or so, so what does he care?).
"Last Samurai" is a beautifully shot, hyper-pretentious movie. Cardboard characters abound. And the boring parts. Oh, the many boring parts. The good characters are oh so good and noble, the bad characters are wicked... Wicked!! Ah, I can't write anymore about this film. I will say one last thing: Pretentious with a capital "P"!!!
