Cruise may be the last great 'movie star' - you put him on a poster and that movie is going to do well. While Hemsworth is out there making movies for Netflix during what should be his prime and Vin coasting on inertia, Cruise is 60 and throwing out bangers.

I remember that debate well. I selfishly wanted to separate the Brosnan Bonds from the Craig Bonds when comparing. That 90s camp really bogs down the Bond legacy. Don’t get me wrong, I still love them, especially Goldeneye, but I can’t argue in earnest that they’re actually good movies.
The MIs are fantastical, sure, but they did a good job of not taking it too far.
