Of all the things the world needs, another Tom Cruise flick ain’t one of’em.

I used to think that. But with a few exceptions - his foray as Jack Reacher - he is physically all wrong for the part - and that bomb The Mummy - he consistently delivers good performances in good movies. Loved the last MI and I thought Edge of Tomorrow was great too.

What makes Cruise movies is the special effects and CGI.
When a movie depends on his acting ability it’s a dud.
I like actors to have more than one facial expression.

Other than Risky Business, Top Gun, Days of Thunder and the MI movies Tom Cruise hasn’t produced a winner yet.
Not a good track record for a major “star” who gets paid what he does.
