Movie: The Last Samurai - Awesome!

   I was a little cautious at first about wanting to see this movie since its prime star was Tom Cruise. Tom Cruise was on a bad movie making run over the last couple years, I most certainly did not want to waste any money on another flop of a movie.

   We took that chance anyway and went the movies to see this 2 1/2 hour movie. Being a student of Aikido and also studying the ways of Iado and the way of Bushido this movie was already interesting to myself just on those merits. I wasn't sure how the spouse would fare with the content though.

   To our surprise we both absolutely loved this movie. I enjoyed the accuracy of the swordmanship and overall acting by Tom Cruise. The movie ranked up there with the Gladiator, by this I mean it had something to keep everyone interested in the film. Good story, great action, and beautiful scenery of Japan. It was full of emotion and never a dull moment. I would love to say more but I would like everyone else to experience the movie without giving anything away. See this movie in the theatre if possible, you won't regret it!

I Give this Movie an:

A+
