    like the only Cruise film I ever paid attention to

    Really? I thought Edge of Tomorrow is rather neat. Eyes Wide Shut is definitely something you’d remember if you watch it.

    Yeah, definitely not a fan of him, but can’t deny the value of his works.

      Edge of tomorrow has been on my to do list because that director is pretty good. So I’m thinking I will enjoy it once I actually get to it.

      Eyes Wide Shut I think I’ve absorbed too much of it through cultural osmosis to appreciate the shock it seems made to illicit. You’re right, though I might have liked it if I saw it in the 90’s.

        I’d definitely recommend Edge of Tomorrow.

        Eyes Wide Shut is not for everyone, and don’t watch it with your parents (or kids)!

        Edge of Tomorrow is like a michael bay movie if it were a legitimately good action flick. Just good bang for your buck. I thought I’d be bored seeing tom cruise and explosions and some weird generic sci fi war. Nope. Spoiler alert: its a movie with tom cruise and some and explosions and some weird sci fi war. And I was legitimately surprised by how entertaining it was still haha.
