I want to love Tom Cruise and this film. I admire his work ethic. I admire his refusal to embrace the latest fad that is "woke". I just can't see past the huge ego at work. The best thing about this movie is the action scenes. The visuals are stunning.

Beautifully filmed. There are some moderately humorous parts and the romantic bits have some validity and power but I'm just left with a feeling that I'm watching Tom be Tom. I understand why people like this movie. It's uplifting and positive which, God knows we need right now. However, it's still a slightly vacuous, ego-driven, dated experience.
