Very good movie
Great movie for a great price. I’ve been a Best Buy customer since it’s inception. With the selection and prices you can’t go wrong.
This film is a modern classic in my opinion. The railroad wants to come through a village of Samurai. But the Samurai don't make it easy fighting tooth and nail all along the movie. Tom Cruise's character is injured and has learned from the West. Now he learns from the East as he killed the husband of a blind woman. The blind woman cares for his injuries even though he would be considered an enemy. This all leads up to the final battle. I won't disclose the ending but it makes up what is so great about this film.
If you appreciate Tom Cruise, and Eastern Culture, you will very much enjoy this tale of a western in Japan, and the zen aspect of the Samurai culture as it was in feudal Japan on the cusp of modernization into the Industrial Age. Two thumbs up, and worthy of rewatching time and again.
