The Last Samurai is awesome. I'm am honored to have seen this movie. I think at times there was some melodrama overload but for the most part I think it got the essence of why I am mesmerized by Samurai lifestyle and stories. As far a relating it to Kurosawa films, I don't think they are really comparable, it's just 2 different styles.
