I like watching tom cruise and not a cgi thing actually defy death in the name of shameless entertainment what can I say

they are less self-serious, MUCH less h*rny and generally less bloodthirsty than the bond movies. the politics are too incoherent and vague to get offended by and there's no top gun/bond style displays of patriotism or military hardware cause the heroes are essentially stateless and use goofy almost-scifi gadgets that only sometimes work correctly.

instead of "they've got lasers now??" type quips they mostly just make goofy faces while performing acts of physical daring

really the only thing you have to reckon with is that only through the power of sc*entology can these movies exist at all

lastly I love it when ving rhames says things
