The movie is three hours long but you would'nt know it. The katana fighting scene's are very well done and so are the jujitsu fighting scene's. The movie is baced on a true story and is well produced. I enjoyed it very much.
Great movie! Just seen it yesterday and I was really impressed. I don't think you could have put more time into that. Samurai fighting the western forces were impressive and the ninja scences were kick ass as well.
I agree... I wouldn't think Tom Cruise as the type to play the role so well. The fighting was kick ass and I think the movie did well depicting the millitarization of japan in the 1800's.
