Whatever else I might think about Tom Cruise, I totally respect the fact that he works ass off.

Anyone seen the ELVIS movie yet. Can a 12 yr old watch it?

Not bad for a guy who play acts to be someone who he is not. To date that crowd has exactly zero of my dollars.

I was to going to see it at the local IMAX theater. Too late. They dropped it for Jurassic Park.

Does anybody know what IMAX policy is? Is there any chance they will bring it back.

I saw TG2 this afternoon.

The preview for the new MI was more impressive.

Still, decent movie. Not worth prime (non-matinee) pricing, however (and Cinemark needs to fire their audio consultant/vendor). WAY too many ‘deja vu’ scenes (beyond mere ‘homage’) and a totally bizarre plot sequence in the opening chapter.

Awesome airborne scenes. What was most interesting to me is that the US Navy refused to portray the F35 in anything but background shots.

He really did pull it off well despite the studio not getting the rights cemented long before release.

Spoiler [not]: Cruise is an actor, so why is it that he couldn’t be bothered with learning his lines for the opening monologue (he was reading a prompter)? That soured the entire experience and I likely over scrutinized the movie, including Cruise’s character (which was inconsistent imho).
