'300: Rise of an Empire' Gets Bumped to 2014, Shuffles Tom Cruise's 'All You Need is Kill'

Damon Houx — Fri, 10 May 2013 03:15:32 +0000

We haven't seen a trailer yet for Noam Murro's '300' prequel '300: Rise of an Empire' and now there's a very good reason why not. Today, Warner Brothers bumped the film into 2014, which caused Tom Cruise's 'All You Need is Kill' to move its release date as well.

'Mission: Impossible 5′ Will Move Forward Starring Tom Cruise

Damon Houx — Mon, 06 May 2013 22:14:16 +0000

Though Tom Cruise may have gone through a rough patch in his career, that's now completely over as he's being brought back to star in 'Mission: Impossible 5' for Paramount. This has been rumored for a while, but it was confirmed today.

Weekend Box Office Report: 'Oblivion' Obliterates the Competition

Jacob Hall — Sun, 21 Apr 2013 18:47:44 +0000

Tom Cruise and science fiction are a powerful combination. Although the opening weekend of 'Oblivion' didn't break any records big or small, it's a more than solid start for a non-franchise, non-sequel, non-reboot. That's a sad statement on the current state of Hollywood, but that's another topic for another day.

'Oblivion' Review

Todd Gilchrist — Fri, 19 Apr 2013 10:43:38 +0000

'Oblivion' is best described as opportunity, squandered. Its landscape – conceptual and physical – feels remarkably unique and bursting with possibilities, but the exploration of both lacks originality, and energy. Joe Kosinski’s follow-up to 'TRON: Legacy' is, like its predecessor, a gorgeously mounted, inventive world-building endeavor, but it’s also equally bloodless -- ponderous without being thoughtful, ambitious without being inspired, much less inspiring. The chronicle of a battle for the fate of humankind that possesses little humanity of its own, 'Oblivion' is an overstuffed compendium of familiar genre tropes rendered with ornamental beauty but not much emotional depth.

Tom Cruise Going Sci-Fi Again with 'Yukikaze'

Tom Cruise's 'Jack Reacher' is Heading for a Sequel

Damon Houx — Sat, 23 Feb 2013 00:30:11 +0000

December is often a surprising month at the box office as many films that never top the box office end up making a lot of money. The Tom Cruise vehicle 'Jack Reacher' opened right before Christmas and had a $15 million opening weekend. Sounds weak right? And yet the picture has grossed nearly $80 million domestically, and over $200 million worldwide. Which is why Paramount is talking about a sequel.

First 'Oblivion' TV Spot Stars Tom Cruise, Robots and Explosions

Jacob Hall — Mon, 21 Jan 2013 01:36:02 +0000

How is it that the new TV spot for 'Oblivion' somehow manages to look more epic and exciting than full theatrical trailer?

'Jack Reacher' Review

Matt Singer — Thu, 20 Dec 2012 13:40:21 +0000

If he hadn't already used that title for another movie, Tom Cruise could have easily called 'Jack Reacher' 'The Last Samurai.' There's a bit of Toshiro Mifune's Sanjuro in this Reacher guy: the masterless warrior who strides into a corrupt town, answers to no one, rights a few wrongs, busts a few heads, and wanders away to find his next challenge. He has no possessions; he owns exactly two shirts and one jacket. All he carries with him is a roll of $100 bills, a passport, a toothbrush, and his inflexible moral code. He would have fit right in back in feudal Japan. Or the Old West, for that matter. He'd make a hell of a Man With No Name.

'Top Gun 2′ Not Happening After All, Original Film Will Get 3D Re-Release

Mike Sampson — Wed, 07 Nov 2012 19:30:05 +0000

'Top Gun 2' was once a high priority at Paramount with Tom Cruise and director Tony Scott all set to return - some 25 years later - to classic 80s hit. A script was written and the studio head even said he expected that 'Top Gun 2' would happen before 'Mission: Impossible 5' but now that plans look to have come screeching to a halt and 'Top Gun 2' is grounded for good.

'Rock of Ages' – Movie Review

Matthew Wilkening — Wed, 13 Jun 2012 14:41:22 +0000

The film version of ‘Rock of Ages‘ merits a lengthy and highly qualified recommendation: Can you stand the Broadway musical format at all? Can you stay extremely open-minded as some of your favorite ’80s rock songs are re-recorded by actors, then endure a couple of questionable lead role casting choices and an openly cheesy atmosphere?

Jeremy Taylor — Fri, 06 Apr 2012 17:00:02 +0000

Based strictly on cast, the musical ‘Rock of Ages’ is a sure-fire hit. It has Tom Cruise, Alec Baldwin, Russell Brand, Julianne Hough, Paul Giamatti, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Mary J. Blige. It also stars a monkey named “Hey, Man,” who may well upstage them all. In the movie, Cruise plays the jaded hair-metal God Stacee [...]

Cruisin' for Compliments

The Hawk — Sun, 14 Aug 2011 14:02:41 +0000

Def Leppard guitarist Phil Collen sounds practically hysterical about Tom Cruise’s performance in the Rock of Ages’ movie adaptation. In the film, which also features the music of Leppard, Bon Jovi, Scorpions, Styx, Pat Benatar and other ’80s staples, Cruise plays Stacee Jaxx, an aging rocker looking to recapture his glory days.
