Best film Cruise has ever done.

Rating: 10/10 (10 December 2004)

The journey of Nathan Algren has to be the best character I have ever seen Cruise play to date.
His portrayal was believable all the way to Algren's DTs and the embarrassment of Higen catching him 'practicing' moves in the house.
I spent 3 wonderful years in Japan and they are an intriguing people rich in tradition and history. The legend of the Samurai and 'Bushido' are still very much alive within Japanese culture and it is a great source of pride for all.
I hope Cruise will be able to retain some of what he gained in this film and I thank everyone who worked so vigorously to make it happen.
Arigato Gozaiimashita.
