Have we had the Last Samurai yet?

Noble but ultimately futile resistance against athe Modern Japanese Army.

Both Heroes of the film gunned down at the end.

Hmm, it seems I was wrong and the Cruise character does survive. Odd, I have seen that film a few times too.

Has his plan foiled and then dies, not sure I'd class that as winning.

Quality film though.

Was he really though ?

He blew up the innocent pretty blonde, she didn't deserve that, she wasn't bad.

from a certain point of view. she was part of the system so complicit. she would do the same deals to get ahead and get promoted she would let murderers walk on technicalities smile

plus Jaime fox's character annoyed me.

Me too, but no one has mentioned it here as Clive Owen is quite obviously the good guy and wins, as does the cop. The only bad guy is the banker who is disgraced

300 yes.

Am I being thick here?

Lock stock. Bad guys hatchet Harry and next door neighbours. Hatchet gets shot to death next door neighbour gets head slammed in door.

Snatch brick top ( bad guy) gets shot gunned to death.


Both those films the good guys get a happy ending. Especially snatch where they get the diamond
