I feel like no amount of trailers or reviews are going to give me an idea of what to expect from this film, and it feels like I’ll probably not know what I think about it until several days after the credits have rolled.
I’m not convinced it will be a good film, but it absolutely seems like a must-see for me.
Tom Cruise is an odd one for me. The idea I have of Tom Cruise is that he always plays the same character, is just a generic action star, etc. And then whenever I actually watch Tom Cruise in a film, I’m always really impressed by just how good an actor he is. But I still can’t shake the idea I have of Tom Cruise.
I have a similar issue with Brad Pitt, where my idea of him is that he’s just a generic leading man, despite him almost always putting in a really strong, nuanced and varied performance.
