Hello new and returning readers!

Tom Cruise’s latest film, Oblivion, has earned over $64M since it’s release April 19th.  On rottentomatoes, critics gave it 56% “like”.  Consumers were a bit kinder and gave it a 67% “like”.  The story seems great and it even has Morgan Freeman in it as a bad guy!  Ever since his Oprah couch jumping days, it seems his films have not done very well, even though the storyline may be excellent.  Have we as audiences just been over-saturated with Tom or is it the characters he plays all seem to be the same?
