| Movie Haiku: | Like Costner in DANCES WITH WOLVES, Cruise plays a Civil War hero ashamed of his past seeking redemption in a pre-modern warrior culture. Watanabe, the eponymous hero, is as charismatic here as Graham Greene was in WOLVES. Villains are from central casting, otherwise a thoroughly satisfying experience. Warning: extremely violent. | ADDITIONAL FF2 INFO ABOUT THIS FILM: | Women filmmakers? | No | Jewish content? | No | Haiku Posted: | 2003 | |
