This 2007 Robert Redford drama came on the heels of Cruise’s PR issues, and at first glance was seen as a potential comeback for the actor, but in the end would mark Cruise’s final foray into straight drama territory. Whether that was a consequence of Cruise’s perceived image issues or the film’s quality is unclear, but Lions for Lambs is the worst...
It’s no coincidence that Tom Cruise has yet to make even the slightest of forays into the fantasy genre since his lead role in Ridley Scott’s original dark fantasy adventure Legend. The movie is, frankly, quite bad, with a meandering plotline and thin character motivations, all of which is underscored by a distractingly incongruous synth-heavy scor...
Taps is a competently made film about a bunch of dummies. When the entire premise hinges on a group of military academy kids who take over the school at gunpoint in order to prevent its closing, it’s hard to root for the “heroes.” Their whole plan is what we call flawed logic, and despite the fact that the characters come to realize their mistake a...
Rock of Ages is a film in which Tom Cruise sings into Malin Akerman’s butt, and yet, somehow Cruise remains pretty much the only good thing about Adam Shankman’s musical adaptation. I suppose it shouldn’t be so much of a surprise given Cruise’s commitment to each and every role, but his consistently delightful performance as Stacee Jaxx is kind of ...
The Mummyis one of the biggest wastes of Tom Cruise’s talent in recent memory. His Nick Morton character is wholly devoid of any engaging or unique character traits, and instead we get a blank slate protagonist who simply reacts to plot points and moves the story forward with no grace or agency. His motivations are murky, the audience is given no r...
Mission: Impossible II is the only bad Mission: Impossible movie. Cruise was understandably eager to jump back into franchise mode after a series of intense dramatic roles in the late 1990s, but this action sequel is mostly a pointless chore of a film as director John Woo never comes close to crafting anything resembling a thrilling sequence—action...
Director Joseph Kosinski’s 2013 sci-fi drama Oblivion is an absolutely gorgeous and incredibly boring spectacle. While Cruise characteristically gives this thing his all, the various “twists” are predictable and poorly executed, and the emotionally detached quality of Kosinski’s direction makes what should be a sweeping sci-fi drama a dull and over...
The first 30 minutes or so of Cocktailare actually pretty good. The film has a breezy charm that’s typical of so many other 80s Hollywood films, and seeing Cruise begin his career as a bartender is pretty fun. But then the movie gets downright silly and continues to become even sillier as it goes along. This is a profoundly dumb movie in which not ...
I’m not mad at you, Jack Reacher: Never Go Back. I’m just disappointed. The first Jack Reacher was a surprisingly rich, thrilling, and artful twist on the action hero formula with Cruise delivering a dark and confident turn as the lead character. The sequel, however, feels like what should have been the story for Jack Reacher 3 or 4, as it introduc...
Valkyrie is one of the most curious entries in Cruise’s resume. On paper, this thing should’ve been terrific, with Bryan Singer helming a World War II dramatic thriller starring Tom Cruise, written by Christopher McQuarrie. But in execution, the story of the failed plot to assassinate Hitler fails to ever really take off. It’s a fascinating film in...
