Cruisin' for a Reviewsin'

We're finally here! The latest Tom Cruise film, the 6th in the M:I franchise, the very one that turned me into the Tom Cruise superfan I am today: Fallout! I am joined by Britt who has been watching the movies for the 1st time along with the podcast, who thankfully had as much fun as I did with this absolute banger of a film. Join us as we go through every stunt in minute detail, compare parts of...

Back in the year 2000, Metallica's song "I Disappear" was to feature on the M:I 2 soundtrack but months before it was due to be released, radio stations were already playing it. And thus the epic law suit of Metallica vs Napster, the early P2P program, made history. Jimmy & I discuss this fascinating story of the court case that divided the music industry & has had ongoing ramifications for physic...

It's time for part 2 of my in depth discussion of M:I Rogue Nation with Jimmy! There are high speed chases with surprising amount of comedy, motorcycle crashes, deception, Benji Bombs, masks and romance?! Join us as we finish off this wonderful movie together and start getting excited for Fallout! Find Jimmy on Twitter @Roleplay_James or his website gm4hire.com.au Find my social media via my websi...

It's time for the incredible 5th installment of the M:I series and this time I'm joined by Jimmy who helps me do a deep dive into this film! From the mind boggling stunts involving airplanes, free diving, opera theaters and a big metal pole, we go through the 1st half of the film with a fine tooth comb, discussing how the series has changed since it's humble beginnings in 1996. Find Jimmy on Twitt...

After reviewing M:I Ghost Protocol with me, Chloe asked me for a list of action movies she should watch, which we then made into a podcast episode coz why not? This list is FAR from comprehensive, I just focus on my favourites which are predominantly American because I didn't want to overwhelm everyone by getting into the world of, say, martial arts action films. Find my social media via my websit...

Chloe is back to finish reviewing the very fine, very action paced Ghost Protocol, the 4th film in the M:I series. We continue our discussion on how hot Tom Cruise looks while distressed, how dreadful Jeremy Renner is, who makes the dresses for the female IMF agents and international car parks.

Mission Impossible is back, baby! After a short break between the M:I films, I am joined by Chloe to discuss the 4th film in the franchise; Ghost Protocol. Arguably one of the best M:I films with one of the most iconic stunts (ie. Tom Cruise scaling the tallest building in the world), this film is HUGE. Join us as we discuss the first half of the film which involves Russian prisons, the permanent...

Join Benjamin and I as we delve into the fascinating story of the Guillermo del Toro/Tom Cruise/James Cameron Lovecraftian film that never happened. It would have been a big budget, R rated horror film about an ancient civilisation that essentially created human life as we know it with sentient black goo... umm yep, Prometheus was absolutely the main reason why this movie never got made, sadly. Be...

This week I am rejoined by my husband Benjamin because I realised he had never seen the 1983 classic 'The Outsiders'! Based on a book many teenagers read in high school (myself included), it's a classic tale of the poor underdog kids vs the horrible rich kids. Join us as we discuss a film that features minimal Tom Cruise but makes up for it with plenty of other 80s heart throbs before they were fa...

Lauren is back for a minisode where we discuss the time she purchased Tom cruise hentai manga for me while in Japan. We discuss the different comics she bought, what hentai is (for those not in the know), Japan's love of self-published fan fic & end on some exciting Tom Cruise news! Also we're very mean to Elon Musk. WARNING: This episode contains references to various kinds of porn which may not...

Join Lauren & I once more as we finish off our review of Michael Mann's 'Collateral'. This week we continue with many tangents about films that are kind of relevant, Brisbane night clubs, old mobile phones & how thirsty we are for Tom in sweats & with long hair. Plus many more facts about how this film was made coz it genuinely is very interesting! Find Lauren on all of the socials @laurenstardust...

Because we're all in isolation, I decided to pause my M:I series for a short while & have brought back former guest Lauren to discuss Collateral! Join us as we discuss the 1st half of the film, including how hot & awful Tom Cruise is, how wholesome Jamie Foxx is, the ethics of being a hit man & a whole bunch of other films vaguely related to Collateral. Also, stay tuned for the new hit film Catalo...

So you're living through a pandemic & have to stay home as much as possible, what do you do? Watch movies, of course! Taylor returns to discuss my list of movies about pandemics, illnesses, zombies & the plague that I have either watched or want to watch. It's enough to make you never want to leave the house ever again! Find Taylor on instagram: @thegodphone Find my socials via my website: www.tom...

We're back to finish off the 3rd installment of the Mission Impossible series! The action keeps getting bigger, the villain badder, the running faster & the teeth whiter. Taylor & I have a blast recounting the incredible bridge scene to the final scene where Ethan Hunt does what he does best (kills the bad guy, runs heaps... you know the drill). And if learning about medical stuff is your bag, Tay...

Let's wash the bitter taste on M:I 2 out of our mouths by blasting our way into Mission Impossible 3! JJ Abrams' feature film debut that literally exploded it's way onto your screen, while still having lots of that cool espionage stuff we loved in the 1st film. I'm joined by Taylor who didn't even know there were more than two M:I films! Join us as we discuss everyone's perfect teeth, mid-2000s te...

If you thought we were mean to the movie in part 1, just wait for the 2nd half! Join Erin & I as we tear apart absolutely everything this film has to offer, from the absurd use of masks (where the hell do they all come from), the amount of Ford Falcon's, the hilarious final fight scene & even the accompanying music video by Metallica! Find Erin on instagram: @kittyblinggg Find my socials via my we...

It's finally time for me to review the one film I've bitched about the most: Mission Impossible 2! I'm joined by my sister Erin in this timely episode about infectious flu-like viruses that threaten to cause a pandemic (seriously, the timing on this ep is wild). Join us as we criticise pretty much every single thing that happens in the 1st half of the movie, from dodgy transition effects to ridicu...

In this weeks minisode, Shan & I go through a list of random Tom Cruise trivia that seems largely made up or at least highly embellished, and we manage to come up with his brand new nickname! Find Shan on instagram: @shanlouy Find my socials via my website: www.tomcruisereviews.com

It's here, folks! It's time to finally start reviewing the 'Mission Impossible' films! This will be the only time I review and Tom films consecutively, so strap yourself in and let's talks about 1996's 'Mission Impossible'! I'm jointed by Shan where we discuss Kittridge's expensive fedora, unexplained sexual chemistry, biting rats & bags full of masks. Find Shan on instagram: @shanlouy Find my soc...

In this minisode, Maddy & I go through a list of all of Tom's films ranked worst to best and discuss why they're mostly incredibly wrong. Anyone who thinks 'Tropic Thunder' is a better film than 'Fallout' is a terrible person who doesn't belong in polite society. Also, if you've been wondering what my opinions on every single one of his films are in two sentences or less, we have you covered! Find...

SHOW ME THE MONEY! Oh yes, it's time for the film that's absolutely packed with memorable quotes; 'Jerry Maguire'! A film that's often been described as a rom-com for dudes, 1996's 'Jerry Maguire' features an eye-watering amount of sports that is almost balanced out by an impressive amount of Tom Cruise nudity & an adorable child who steals the show from just about everyone. Join Maddy & I as we d...

We're back with part two of our 'Legend' review. If you thought Rachel & I got pretty detail-heavy in the 1st part, strap yourselves in because we go DEEP! Join as we deep dive into topics such as fairy kisses, unexpected tantrums, shitty pies, morph suits, gyrating demons & juicy boys. We also spend a fair amount of time discussing Tom's groin again, just in case you were wondering. Find Rachel o...

After a short break from 80s films, we're back with Ridley Scott's 1985 dark fantasy 'Legend'. Released right in the middle of the wave of dark fantasy films of the 80s, Legend is a bit of an anomaly, and definitely Tom's least Tom Cruisey role. Join Rachel & I as we discuss the outstanding SFX makeup, the breathtaking unicorns, the confusing script, the bewildering dialogue, Tim Curry's epic laug...

In this minisode, Tom and I talk about other films, TV shows and even books that feature time loops, discussing some of our favourites and even touching on other popular time-based plot devices such as the alternate timelines, aka the "Sliding Doors" moment. Find Tom on instagram: @raptor_au Find my social media via my website: www.tomcruisereviews.com

We're back with a big, actiony sci-fi film this week where I review 2014's 'Edge of Tomorrow' with Tom, who is a passionate fan of sci fi (but less so of Tom Cruise... the audacity). Based on a Japanese book called 'All You Need Is Kill' this is a classic time-loop film where we see Tom die MANY times, sometimes horrifically & sometimes hilariously. It's also one of the rare time we see Tom play a...
