Epic Action Drama. Set In Japan During The 1870s, The Last Samurai Tells The Story Of Capt. Nathan Algren (tom Cruise), A Respected American Military Officer Hired By The Emperor Of Japan To Train The Country's First Army In The Art Of Modern Warfare. As The Emperor Attempts To Eradicate The Ancient Imperial Samurai Warriors In Preparation For More Westernized And Trade-friendly Government Policies, Algren Finds Himself Unexpectedly Impressed And Influenced By His Encounters With The Samurai, Which Places Him At The Center Of A Struggle Between Two Eras And Two Worlds, With Only His Own Sense Of Honor To Guide Him.

While Japan undergoes tumultuous transition to a more Westernized society in 1876-77, The Last Samurai gives epic sweep to an intimate story of cultures at a crossroads. In America, tormented Civil War veteran Capt. Nathan Algren (Tom Cruise) is coerced by a mercenary officer (Tony Goldwyn) to train the Japanese Emperor's troops in the use of modern weaponry. Opposing this "progress" is a rebellion of samurai warriors, holding fast to their traditions of honor despite strategic disadvantage. As a captive of the samurai leader (Ken Watanabe), Algren learns, appreciates, and adopts the samurai code, switching sides for a climactic battle that will put everyone's honor to the ultimate test. All of which makes director Edward Zwick's noble epic eminently worthwhile, even if its Hollywood trappings (including an all-too-conventional ending) prevent it from being the masterpiece that Zwick and screenwriter John Logan clearly wanted it to be. Instead, The Last Samurai is an elegant mainstream adventure, impressive in all aspects of its production. It may not engage the emotions as effectively as Logan's script for Gladiator, but like Cruise's character, it finds its own quality of honor. --Jeff Shannon
