I want to see this one. Tom has become really respectible as he's gotten older. Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

I think he's a great actor.. the man knows how to choose roles. Unlike some here, I think he's always been an outstanding actor. Some of Tom's great roles: A Few Good Men Born on the 4th of July Jerry Maguire Magnolia Far Away (I think that's the title, his second movie with Nicole & directed by Ron Howard) The Firm and now, The Last Samarai oh yeah, Rain Man (I know I'm missing some!) (I knew I was missing some edit) [This message was edited Mon Jan 12 12:17:11 PST 2004 by June7] |

Ahem, Return Of The King is already film of the year. Everything else pales in comparison. | |

i'd love to go see this. unfortunately, it stars Tom Cruise and is about civil war era martial arts. "oPS i HITTED THE CAPDLOCK" | |

Well, Last Samurai was quite good, but its no Return Of The King, by any stretch of the imagination. ROTK is simply the movie to rule them all (sorry, couldn't resist).
Last Samurai was a great movie, in spite of the fact that it was highly derivitive (it borrowed heavily from Dances With Wolves, Braveheart & Shogun). Still, it is a beautiful film, and definitely worth a look. Cruise gets a bad rep, because of his past as a "pretty boy" in bad films. Nonetheless, he is a decent actor, and has done some great work in recent years. I particularly enjoyed his turn in Eyes Wide Shut. Do not hurry yourself in your spirit to become offended, for the taking of offense is what rests in the bosom of the stupid ones. (Ecclesiastes 7:9) | |

Julia Roberts is a good analogy, as both CAN act when they have the right director (Cruise with Cameron Crowe, Roberts with Stephen Soderbergh). Most of the time they just play themselves, which is a shame. I think Cruise is getting a little better about this, taking on films like Magnolia. I couldn't stand Cruise until Interview With The Vampire. I was furious that he was cast, and thought he was totally wrong for the part. He won me over with his portrayal of Lestat, and I haven't forgotten that.
