Review: ‘Mission Impossible – Fallout’ Starring Tom Cruise, Henry Cavill, Rebecca Ferguson

When it comes to pure action films, there are few who do it better than Mission: Impossible. Although it started with the first film mostly being a spy/thriller adapted from a late 60s television show of the same name, the franchise has evolved into what some may consider one of the greatest action franchises of […]

Review: ‘American Made’ Starring Tom Cruise, Domhnall Gleeson, Sarah Wright

Say what you want about Tom Cruise, but I’ve always challenged someone to actually name a bad film in which he headlines. It was nearly impossible until The Mummy back in May of this year. I’m happy to say that just a mere four months later, Cruise has returned to form in American Made with […]

105: ‘Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation’ Starring Tom Cruise, Simon Pegg

Posted: August 6, 2015 at 2:18 pm   /   Film, Reel Spoilers

Tom Cruise is back and trying desperately not to look desperate. He’s in search of a hit and should have had one with Edge of Tomorrow/Live.Die.Repeat (or whatever they’re calling it this week). Clearly it’s going to take more than a good movie for him to have hit. So he returns once more to the […]

It’s Reel Spoilers #46 in which we learn that America wants to see kids dying more than they want to see Tom Cruise dying… or something like that. The movie du jour (which technically means “of the day” but I don’t know how to say “of the week” in French, and I don’t feel like Googling […]
