After watching American Made, I’m
convinced Tom Cruise needs to work with Doug Liman way more often. Which isn’t
much of a reach, as the actor/director combo has the sci-fi adventure
Luna Park on the slate in the near future. But between this
and Edge of Tomorrow, or whatever title you prefer, Cruise—who
I maintain is the last great traditional movie star we have left—hasn’t been this
good in years.
Best known as one of the masterminds behind Key &
Peele—which, though I enjoy, I admittedly don’t adore like so many
folks (it has the same hit-and-miss issue as every other sketch comedy series,
even my all-time favorites, and though there are manic, brilliant highs, I
never found the whole particularly enthralling)—Jordan Peele apparently has a
whole other career ahead of him, should he choose: making awesome horror
movies.
