Browsing: Tom Cruise

Mission: Impossible – Fallout continues a trend basically unheard of in cinema when it comes to film franchises – that of getting better film after film. Sure there are some sequels that are better than the originals, but to do so over six films in a row? [rwp-review-recap id=”0″] Tom Cruise returns as Ethan Hunt […]

Top Gun is one of those special ’80s films that appeal to pretty much all generations. Tony Scott’s film about hotshot Navy pilots remains at the top of several lists — both nostalgic and enjoyable summer film fare. We know that a sequel is coming — Top Gun: Maverick reportedly picks up in the modern day with […]

We all know that there are few working A list actors with the stunt ability (and apparently fearlessness) as Tom Cruise in the Mission: Impossible franchise.  Remember in the most recent film Rogue Nation when he actually hung off the side of a plane?  Yeah.  That sounds like just the tip of the spy-berg. Today during the Paramount […]

WonderCon in Anaheim has steadily increased its major studio presence over the past few years, and in 2018 that meant Warner Bros. Specifically, at least from looking at how packed the area was during the presentation, Ready Player One. The film screened back at South by Southwest (SXSW) and was pretty much the main movie discussed […]

[rwp-review-recap id=”0″] These days, Tom Cruise is in a rather odd position as a Hollywood star: people expect him to be solid in his roles, but they don’t really expect him to do anything that might be award-worthy, either. He always gives a full-court-push, regardless of the project he’s in at the time, be it Rock […]

Apparently movie audiences still feel the need, the need for speed in the form of aerial combat pilots returning for Top Gun 2.  News of the sequel has been kicking around development hell for the better part of 2 years, never really going away but never really moving forward other than Tom Cruise saying “it’s happening”. Earlier […]

There’s a lot of talk that the 2017 Universal Pictures The Mummy reboot may be the single worst Tom Cruise movie of the modern age.  I say that because if you look at Rotten Tomatoes scores for Cruise flicks, the worst is Cocktail at 5%, Elizabethtown is at 28%, Lions For Lambs at 27%, and The Mummy is now at 17%. The […]

Some films usher in the start of a great franchise future, like Marvel’s Cinematic Universe kicking off with Iron Man. Others come off less stellar, like the recent King Arthur: Legend of the Sword, which was meant to be the start of a series of Arthurian films, that seems to have done so poorly that […]

No franchise is safe from a reboot, and The Mummy proves this.  Remember the pretty enjoyable Brendan Fraser film? Yeah, I sure do.  But- here’s a brand new series so that the Universal Monsters can have a franchise. Check out the trailer that dropped during tonight’s Walking Dead: She is real.
