4/4 stars
Beautifully shot, tense action and strong characters, plus great work by Cruise and Foxx. Definitely worthwhile, and it made me a fan of Michael Mann's work.

Mission: Impossible III
2.5/4 stars
An improvement over number two, this movie comes back to the M:I concept a little bit, but the script is ultimately shallow and simplistic. Biggest offense is the undisguised McGuffin of the Rabbit's Foot. Biggest standout is Hoffman's twisted performance.

The Last Samurai
3.5/4 stars
Really gorgeous picture. Tom Cruise in a very complex role. With the historical epic being essentially its own genre these days, it's nice to see one that's legitimately great, not just an overblown disappointment.
