Tom Cruise’s Knight & Day has now been in cinemas for exactly two weeks, in which time it has managed to make a total of $44 million at the global box office. Since the film’s production budget was $117 million,

Neither, though, is the (actually perfectly entertaining) flick’s disastrous performance being cheered at Paramount,

They’re unlikely to cancel the project, which has been in development for years,

But a wider trend is perhaps to blame. As I noted in our news pages last week, the so-called Summer Blockbuster appears to be in terminal decline. Audiences are tired of unimaginative re-makes and samey action flicks. These days,
http://www.needforspeed.lv/forum/ind...34650#msg34650, that rules out almost every film Cruise makes. If he wants to stay at the top of the tree into his sixth decade, he needs to reinvent himself.
For Cruise,

Now he appears to be losing his mojo. Endless ink is duly being spilled in an attempt to explain why. Some blame age (he’ll be 48 on Saturday), others his links to Scientology. Plenty have wondered if his public eccentricities are incompatible with being an all-American action hero.
