Looking at most of his recent movies, and I'd be surprised if he spends more than a day on set (if indeed any of these movies have sets?) Regardless of the role, he seems to look like he's wearing his own clothes and is content to spout a bit of (usually, unrelated) clearly unscripted mumbo-jumbo, that the (cough, cough) 'director' manages (unsuccessfully) to weave into the plot (or lack of) Chances are his scenes are usually added into these movies after most of them are 'in-the-can' (so to speak?) He probably still makes a few grand per movie for these low budget DTV efforts (despite his minimal input) which (even with 40+ movies) probably only takes up a third of his year.....and every now and then, he may even get the odd 'studio' role (which will bring in bigger bucks) It's more telling about how inexperienced the directors must be...that *they* still consider him a marketable name (and I'm not ragging on Roberts, who I actually think is a great actor) but like Michael Madsen (or Tom Sizemore) he's really whoring himself out in the last decade (or so) but I'm sure he's having fun? (and I wouldn't mind being a couple of quid behind him in the bank?)

I detest PULP FICTION (overrated garbage) However, Travolta was great in Saturday Night Fever, Blow-out, Face Off & From Paris With Love

I hear what you're saying....but the big problem I had with this movie, is that it wasn't (quote) "fun" EDGE OF TOMORROW was fun (whilst being thought-provoking) even KNIGHT AND DAY was fun (or at very least 'slick') THE MUMMY however, was neither. I like Tom Cruise (and was really looking forward to this movie) But it just felt malnourished and empty (and it sort of looked like no-one had fun making it either?) BTW, I've never visited 'Rotten Tomatoes' in my life (and most of my favourite movies, are deemed, by-and-large, terrible)

I really enjoyed the previous 2 movies....but this was pretty pointless. It was a SJW (or BLM) wet-dream of a movie....replete with heavy-handed (would-be 'meaningful') pomposity (not to mention, huge plot-holes)

George Segal is always value for money (a really underrated talent)

I'm a big Tom Cruise fan, but unlike his other movies, this was really empty-headed with no substance at all. The biggest crime (even if you *can* get past it being a dumb blockbuster) was that apart from the beginning, it lacked any other 'big' set-pieces (and seemed very stage bound) and what outdoor shots there were, looked green-screen (which gave the picture a 'cheap' look...which it was in reality, anything but?)

Bobby (sat in the car) calling Annette "Stupid Bitch" (and the sneer he does immediately afterwards) is comedy gold
