When I first saw ads for The Last Samurai months before it was released, I didn?t know that this was Tom Cruise?s latest attempt to try to grab some Oscar gold. I figured it was his latest attempt to prove that he can do his own stunts, a la the Mission Impossible movies (he does that here as well anyway.) In the month that the movie has been in theaters, it has garnered several award show nominations, including three Golden Globe nods. Since I have now finally seen it, I think it is award-worthy, though I don?t see Oscar going to Cruise this year.

Captain Nathan Algren (Tom Cruise) is a Civil War hero who is haunted by his past. He?s not haunted by the Civil War, but from recently fighting American Indians in the West. It?s now 1876, and he is an alcoholic and experiencing flashbacks of a cruel massacre of women and children by himself under the direction of his commanding officer, Colonel Bagley (Tony Goldwyn.) He is doing demonstrations for a rifle company, but it almost equals up to a circus sideshow act. He gets a chance to do something more challenging when Japanese businessman Omura (Masato Harada) makes him an offer. He wants to modernize his country through his railway system, and he has been pressuring the young Emperor Meiji (Shichinosuke Nakamura) to suppress the recent samurai attacks that are stopping that process. Omura has hired Bagley to train the country?s new army and the Colonel in turn thinks of Algren because of Algren?s experience with fighting the Indians, which he figures are the same as the Samurais. Algren doesn?t want to do it at first, but eventually agrees after an offer to be paid $500 a month plus an additional $500 upon completion, and he gets to bring his friend and fellow Army veteran, Sergeant Zebulon Gant (Billy Connolly), with him. Algren heads to Japan where he meets the army?s interpreter, the British Simon Graham (Timothy Spall), and starts training the troops. He also depends on General Hasegawa (Togo Igawa) to help him learn more about the leader of the Samurais, Katsumoto (Ken Watanabe), since Hasegawa once fought along side him. Omura gets antsy though, and demands that Algren lead the army into a battle with the Samurais, even though they were clearly not ready. Predictably, the army is massacred, resulting in the deaths of some friends and people he has come to know. Algren himself is almost killed, but his warrior spirit while killing a red-armored Samurai impresses Katsumoto enough that he spares the American?s life takes him prisoner so he can find out what Omura is up to next. Katsumoto brings Algren to a remote village run by his son, Nobutada (Shin Koyamada.) Since Algren doesn?t exactly know where to escape to, he isn?t confined in a cell, though he is constantly followed by the Silent samurai (Seizo Fukumoto), his bodyguard/watcher. He stays with Taka (Koyuki), Katsumoto?s sister and the widow of the red-armored Samurai, who dutifully heals him up, but is uncomfortable with him being there. Katsumoto?s right-hand man, Ujio (Hiroyuki Sanada), constantly challenges Algren to fights, but ironically trains him in Samurai fighting techniques. Time passes and Algren becomes friends with Katsumoto. He decides to help the Samurais, especially with the regrouping of Omura?s army and his purchase of modern weapons that could wipe out the Samurais for the last time.

The winners of this year's Independent Game Festival Awards feature some of the most entertaining gameplay and beautiful graphics around. These are like the art house films of the game industry, developed on shoestring budgets but crafted with love and personality.

Many games were nominated, but only eight won awards.

AirStrike 2 is finally here. Get ready for brand new land, air and water units - armored vehicles, heavy helicopters, submarines, destroyers, carriers, speedboats. Missions take place over water, desert, high in the mountains and over densely populated areas.

Richard Harris was nominated for several awards (including the Oscar and Golden Globe) for his performance in The Field. The time is the mid-1930s; the place, western Ireland. For many years rugged individualist Bull McCabe (Harris) has been cultivating a small plot of rented land, nurturing it from barren rock into a fertile field. Now, however, the widow who owns the land plans to sell it at auction. The infuriated Bull shows up at the bidding, secure in his belief that none of his neighbors will dare bid against him. But Bull has not taken into consideration a wealthy Irish-American (Tom Berenger), who intends to pave over the land and bring new industry to the area. "This is deep, very deep, deeper than you think" warns Bull, as he sends his grown son (Sean Bean) to "persuade" the American to withdraw his bid. Armed with the foreknowledge that Bull's tenacity has caused heartbreak and tragedy in the past, the audience steels itself for the awful consequences still to come. Punctuating the storyline are the periodic appearances of the toothless village idiot, played by John Hurt. Originally produced for British television, The Field was based on the landmark play by John B. Keane, and directed by My Left Foot's Jim Sheridan. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
