Ticket Stubs #38: Baby, You A Song

As promised, I have the last installment in the two-part Last Laugh series for you, and when I say "last," I mean The Last Samurai, and when I say The Last Samurai, I mean Tom Cruise, and when I say Tom Cruise, I mean your internal organs, and when I say your internal organs, I mean....

Sorry, I was watching that episode of Family Guy last night where they go on a road trip to get Chris back into the scouts and wind up pretending to be Native Americans so they can get the station wagon back from a casino where Lois has become addicted to video poker. At home, Brian is about to learn the secret to happy life as a dog when the infomercial is interrupted by a One Life to Live marathon. So dammit, Ticketholders! I told you we had to get back to the damned review a damned week ago, dammit!

So anyone have a guess why this re-issued review FROM May 17, 2004 (SWAT Ticket #5: The Last Laugh) is called Baby, You A Song? It's because this review makes me want to roll my windows down and cruise. And by cruise, I mean Tom Cruise. And by Tom Cruise, I mean your internal organs. So here it is, dammit!

Finally, I come to The Last Samurai. A great dating film because the ladies will dig Tom Cruise and the love scenes, and the guys will like all the subtle comedy and detailed gory violence. Cruise plays a washed-up war hero who is sent to Japan to train the Americanized army for a war against the way of the samurai. The local clan leader likes his fighting spirit and so takes him prisoner instead of chopping his head off. Cruise's character winds up fighting for the "bad guys" and saves samurai tradition for the future generations. Excellent story, excellent fight choreography, excellent filming. A definite SWAT Ticket Most Wanted Movie of the Week.

No clue what I will do next, but I'm trying to clear out my Greatest Hits blog so it can get more traffic on Just the Ticket. I also have another Heroines Are Made character profile coming soon, so whatever I get done first is what you'll see first. As always, stay tuned for more heroes, heroines, and villains from my head, and don't forget to save those Ticket Stubs.

Ticketmaster,
out, dammit!
