In the last week I've seen "The Last Samurai" and "Red Eye".
Both were very different albeit very rowdy and violent movies for the most part. TLS was a 150 min saga that actually restored "some" of my faith in Tom Cruises ability to act (or at least pick a decent script). RE was somewhat predictable, but had an excellent element of suspense, and I loved the fact that a sweet and pretty young woman played by Rachel McAdams could also take the fight to the bad guys rather than just rollover and play dead. IMO a decent role model for today's women--------be sweet, respectfull, and feminine but ready to kick some butt if comfronted by evil.
