WOW! WHAT A MOVIE

Rating: Null/10 (18 June 2004)

Tom Cruise movies are 50-50 with me, he has made some good ones and some stinkers, I waited to see Last Samurai and now I wished I had seen it in the theater. Last Samurai is a great movie in the vein of Braveheart and Dances with Wolves. Cruise may have his best performance ever and deserved at least a nomination for an Oscar. The real star of Last Samurai is Ken Watanabe, the noble Samurai Lord, his performance is one of greatness, and he is fierce and brave, gruff and kind, fighting to save his way of life. Last Samurai is one of the best 20 movies ever made. 9 out of 10
