For some reason inexplicable to me I wanted to see this. It was everything I expected it to be ... for better and worse.

A few notes in appreciation of Tom Cruise - he's certainly excellent at what he does, superb even, an outstanding actor forever playing the same part - but unfortunately he seldom does anything that interests me...

Anyways, that's not "his" problem and he's doing just fine without me. But it was good to see him in "Tropic Thunder" and "Eyes Wide Shut" and I'd love to see him play a few different roles.
