That&#x27;s also the plot of Tom Cruise&#x27;s previous movie where he&#x27;d been fooled into harvesting the Earth for an illegal alien tetrahedral species. Maybe he&#x27;s getting typecast.<p>At least it&#x27;s not as bad as Matt Damon who&#x27;s being typecast as the lone human surviving with little hope on a faraway planet. Two movies in a row -- let&#x27;s see if they can make it three.
