Tom Cruise is a complete Gaijin Superhero in The Last Samurai:

• Need to prove the army isn’t ready? Gaijin Smash!
• Living as a captive of a bunch of Samurai? Gaijin Perimeter and Gaijin Ocular Blast!
• Getting mud all over the tatami? Gaijin Telepathy!
• Need to rescue the noble captive? Gaijin Smash!
• Need to visit the emporer? Gaijin Smash!

The movie is actually pretty awesome if you shout out the gaijin superpowers Tom Cruise uses when appropriate..

Ken Watanabe is so great to watch, but Tom Cruise is so… Tom Cruise. And the ending is really annoying. I think Yojimbo by Akira Kurosawa is the better way to go.

Ken Watanabe, Billy Connolly ate this movie up.
