      Even his “smaller” projects were good - Jack Reacher, American Made, heck Oblivion was decent despite getting mixed reviews and not a huge moneymaker by Cruise standards.

      The way in which and how heavily they were marketed turned me off of every one of them before they hit screens. Honestly, I’ve never seen a fast and furious film for the same reason. The harder someone tries to sell something, the more I have to wonder why the product can’t stand on its own.

        I love people who have never seen the F&F movies. Because it starts off as good flashy dumb action that ABSOLUTELY MUST go bigger than last time.

        I’m a car guy, I loved them so much. But even I reached a point where I was like “This shit is so fucking dumb” and stopped watching.

        I find it interesting as to when people felt the need to tap out.
