    Will not be watching for at least another 3 years, 5/5.

    The Last Samurai

    ★★★★½

    I hadn’t seen this movie in 4-5 years, so figured it was time to rewatch. Not quite as good as I remember (and my threshold for violence has gone wayyyy down), but there are definitely elements I love. The score is incredible, the themes of honor, tradition, and loyalty still resonate, and the character growth is satisfying to watch. Deep stuff aside, this movie has two of my favorite things - Tom Cruise and swords. A little sad that it didn’t resonate as much as it did when I was younger, but still a favorite.

    ★★★½

    Film featuring:
    -  Scarborough Fair 
    - A love triangle involving  a quarterlife crisis, a midlife crisis, and a girl who couldn’t see a red flag if it slapped her in the face 
    - Really cool shots. Like really cool.
    - Scarborough Fair (again)
    - The most overacted laugh in the history of cinema 
    - Weaponized religion (literally)
    - Scarborough Fair (for like the 9th time)
