Ohmygod, i love this film, but i love anything about Japanese history. I think it was a very cute story, and well told, the cinematography was just beautiful!
Perfection. Only complaint is that in the 1st battle against the empire the samurai put women on the front lines in 5 groups.. go see the statues in Japan. They are not in the movie!!
As much as I hate Tom Cruise-since you actually didn't like his character in the film-I thought the movie was good.
Los efectos especiales se notan tanto que la película pierde mucho y se salva sólo por Tom Cruise. Bastante decepcionante.
Simply love Tom Cruise & Ken Watanabe ! A successful collaboration ! Just watched it again last nite, still enjoyed it as much as I did the 1st time !

The Last Samurai is an excellent movie.
It's about an American who embraces the Samurai culture and fights against his own country. The script does something that most epics fail to do: Make the story understandable. The viewer can understand what's happening and not be confused.
Tom Cruise gives another great performance as the American chief Nathan Algren. He starts off a depressed alcoholic and becomes the fierce soldier that he once was. Ken Watanabe also gives a great performance as the samurai leader Katsumoto. He becomes the character with fierce tenacity and intensity, but also with warmth and respect. They have great chemistry together.
Great cinematography, art direction, and costume designs. Good visual effects every once in a while. Brilliant battle scenes.
OVERALL: Excellent film
The best of Tom Cruise so far, better than the rest of other primative kid stuff.
Despite Tom Cruise being the last Samurai. Somewhat offended like Paul Mooney. But I don't dis like Cruise.
Anyways it worked out well. Seeing how they're cultures differed so much he decides to go with the Samurai. Honorable clan thought fought to the very end.
Tear shedding movie for myself. First seeing the son die then all of them get wasted at the end was a very touching scene. Movie also may get a person amped like myself. When they took out the first line of attack while they were having entertainment.
I liked the rhythm of the movie - nice and peaceful during the time when Algren lived in the village
True harmony
and equal balance of humans - co existing with nature
wouldn't it be great to live like that
too bad there aren't that many villages like that around nowadays
I found the ending to be quite strange having Tom Cruise surviving the last battle
but the part when he approached the emperor of japan was very touching
