But in a way that’s the point. Others here are proposing young actors who have made single-digit numbers of movies. Pretty easy to have a 100% hit rate when you’ve made 4 movies! Tom Cruise has been making films nonstop for 4 decades.
I’d be tempted to argue that it hits what it was aiming for. It’s meant to be a cheap raunchy Porky’s rip-off, and it succeeds. I suspect Cruise does a good job in it - the year before he did Taps, and the year after he did All the Right Moves.
OK that one passes.
