I thought they forgot about this.

“Run like the wind Tom Cruise!”

 

[Johnny Utah]

Looks insane.

But so did the trailer for Dead Reckoning and the only thing in that I liked was Esai Morales.

I've not watched Dead Reckoning yet simply because Im not so hung-up on these movies to wait multiple years on a cliffhanger - was it any good?
For the most part I consider the Mission Impossible films pretty good fun, Fallout and Rogue Nation are my favourites.

If you liked the other films, I'm sure you'd enjoy Dead Reckoning. As far as I recall, it's reasonably self-contained as much as a "Part 1" can be, so don't let the idea of a cliffhanger keep you from watching it.

Me neither, tho I was also told you can watch Part 1. I get tired of that waiting cr@p.

 

[Rambler]

I enjoy all these movies and really liked DR. looking forward to this one. However, knowing Cruise wants to keep this series going, I'm not expecting Hunt to bite it.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Someone needs to do a montage of the Cruise running tracking shots... and show him aging over time... and then AI his ass aging into his 90's, still running.

 

[EVILFACE]

Alright, guess I’ll *** one last time.

 

[twistedfreak]

I am looking forward to this. If nothing else, the action/stunts should be fantastic. Cruise is one of the last actors alongside Reeves in Hollywood that is truly dedicated to the craft. I'll take practical work over CGI any day.

Cruise vs Reeves, the Movie

 

[a-dev]

I hope Cruise returns to dramatic, non-action roles in his more senior years - and before he gets himself killed. Watched Eyes Wide Shut for the first time last night and quite enjoyed it.

I had the same thought while watching Rain Man....unfortunately I think Hollywood has changed too much, it's difficult to make indie movie now.

Yeah I need to rewatch that. Plus Born on the Fourth of July and Magnolia, he’s terrific in those.

 

[Johnny Utah]

A Few Good Men, The Last Samurai, The Color of Money, Minority Report and Collateral are his best outside of Mission Impossible.

 

[Rambler]

I think I'm due to revisit Minority Report and Collateral.

 

[Johnny Utah]

Colin Farrell is fantastic in Minority Report.

Cruise is insanely good in Collateral. A great villain.

 

[choombaz]

I rewatched Minority Report. It doesn’t hold up for me unfortunately. It’s got great ideas and yes the cast is excellent etc but as a whole, it just doesn’t hang together particularly well, good individual scenes but ultimately quite bland. The effects aren’t good and the action scenes surprisingly bad.

Collateral on the other hand …still wow.

I hated Cruise when i was growing up but at some point probably when he started to do more serious roles i really started to appreciate his acting “chops”. Edge Of Tomorrow is another great one, Oblivion is underrated. Risky Business was the one Cruise film that I loved when I was a kid, and that still holds up.

 

[a-dev]

Far and away his worst film must surely be erm...Far and Away.

Maybe. I don't think I've ever seen it. I just wanted to make that gag.
