This made me Not hate Tom Cruise.

Rating: 8/10 (7 March 2019)

I was never a fan of Tom Cruise, I found all his 90s films rather subpar and rather unexceptional, Interview With A Vampire I obviously enjoyed, but otherwise I found him to be pretty average and not fitting the A List category.
Then I watched The Last Samurai, I was blown away by it, all of it, the direction, the soundtrack, the story and script, the character of Captain Nathan Algrin and his battles with PTSD and guilt, Tom's performance was fantastic, you really feel for the character, as a result it straight away became one of my favourite films.
I recommend this film to anyone, even my gran liked it.
8/10
