As I have never seen the first movie and probably never will after watching this film.
Nails been driven down a black board is how I describe the acting.
Apart from the real part of this film, ie the flying which is superb, for most I had my eyes shut.
Does Tom Cruise really need the money, I think not.
Obviously he must need it as he can only afford one jacket in the entire film.
If you love overblown American BS, go see it, if not don’t.
