an unbelievable movie

Rating: 10/10 (21 July 2004)

I don't even have the right words to describe the excellence of this movie, The Last Samurai. I've never seen such a powerful and realistic movie like this one. The whole story is just amazing and there are no boring parts, no inappropriate scenes, no unnecessary things, it is just something nobody can miss. Edward Zwick did an unbelievable job and I consider it a masterpiece. Tom Cruise and Ken Watanabe did just an incredible, amazing, and a "10 stars out of 10" movie.
Tom Cruise plays as Captain Algren, a civil war hero who is paid to go to Japan and take out a rebellion (which were the Samurai) headed by Katsumoto (Ken Watanabe). Without knowing what was to come, Capt. Algren faces a whole new adventure when he was captured by the Samurai.
This is a "must-be-seen" movie. I totally recommend it.
